I would love to know what Finnie was drinking in Village club. Poor old Bernard Froggatt worked his socks off and lost. I think Labour thought Anston was the major threat to Rotherham and focused on us. 500 Tories split the vote in Anston, we only need 30 more votes. This is my analysis http://independentanstonpolitics.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=257&action=edit 10 UKIP councillors, 44% of the vote, which would destroy Barron and company if there was an election.
Thanks Tim. Have been trying since yesterday to open your analysis, without success. Any idea why ?
