Kathleen Sharland points out Southend Tories are -in the light of the looming local elections - accusing political opponents of using the cause of trying to save our town's swimming pool as a blatant attempt to gain votes (Apr 21) This while at the very same time urging their supporters to vote on national issues in order to send the Government a message!
In the circumstances, one has to ask whether the Conservative hierarchy hereabouts is taking their low-down core support for utter idiots.
Sadly, I think that it is. More sadly still, I think that it may be quite right to do so - they know their people best.
