If you have the misfortune to end up with a Green councillor on Friday don’t despair! Make them work! Report every pothole, every cracked paving stone, every piece of dog shit, every late bin collection. And get your fellow residents to do the same. Attend council meetings. Go to surgeries. Complain about your council tax bill. Keep them on their feet. Remind them local politics isn’t about palestine - it’s about pavements and potholes.

Who else is relishing the end of this lying obnoxious treacherous twats political career on Thursday ?
