On the streets

It's been a good weekend. The sun's come out, and we hit the streets yesterday with a residents' survey. We had a fantastic response . Many thanks to everyone who took the time to talk. Everything you talk to us about really does make a huge difference. One of the recurring themes I have come across on the doorstep is that politicians are not really listening, are all the same and are increasingly out of touch. By opening your door, and taking a few minutes to download onto me what you think I should be working on, you really are helping to make sure that we are keeping in touch with what really matters in your patch.
