IN response to John Tanner’s letter (Tuesday’s ViewPoints), I would answer that it would be a disaster for the county should there be a Labour majority next year.
I have not forgotten that due to the financial failure of the previous Labour Government, national debt rose to over £1,000,000,000,000. I also note that the Labour-run city council charges the most in council tax across the county, over three times the amount charged by the Conservative-run West Oxfordshire District Council. That’s what I call a disaster.
I will be concentrating my efforts on trying to solve the traffic issues in Witney.
I suspect Councillor Tanner’s constituents would prefer he spent his time on their issues rather than jumping on yet another bandwagon.
