Done and dusted - till the next time!

So the votes were counted and I did not become Mayor of North Tyneside. I did achieve most of the objectives I set out to. I got some 5000 1st. and 2nd. preference votes. The membership of North Tyneside Green Party has doubled, old, dormant members have revived their interest in Political Ecology and we are starting to get through to people. I am saddened by the fact that so many people in North Tyneside voted for Fascists as a protest (I know it was a protest vote as a large number of people whose 1st pre. vote was for me gave their 2nd pref to a Nazi and I picked up a large number of 2nd pref. voted from fascist 1st prefs.)
The Green party has a great deal to do although we have done a good job of germinating a good crop of seeds across North Tyneside. Now they need to be nurtured. Brought into the light. Shown tender loving care so that when a Green candidate stands as Elected Mayor in 2013 we will be up there as contenders. You can still join us in the work we will be doing within the communities of North Tyneside. Go to our web page which you will find on the links column next to this blog to see what we are doing. Every one's ideas and contributions are welcome. And if anyone just happens to have a spear couple of grand stuffed into a matrices they don't use then North Tyneside Green Party will be happy to put it to good use, because at the moment we are skint.
So, here we go for the Council elections next May
ya-hooooooooooo!
