York candidates debate in Jane-Falstaff
I'm surprised the media isn't focusing on the longevity of Councillors from the former City of York who are still on council. There are a handful who have been around since the '80s! What with the anti-incumbent backlash being encouraged by the media you would think that Councillors in this area à la Augimeri, Saundercook and Di Giorgio. And yet there has been barely any media mention of any of the elections in these Wards. Can they really be that safe?
Well at least now a debate in Ward 12 gets some media attention. Di Giorgio has been a waste of space on council for the last 10 years and it would be a shame to see him there for another four. I hope one of the candidates profiled in the article actually unseat him this year. We'll see!
