  • Newcastle Conservative Federation
    Newcastle Conservative Federation Newcastle City Council Electoral Review – Draft Boundaries Submission August 2016 This is a response from the Newcastle Conservative Federation to the Local Government Boundary Commission’s draft proposals for electoral ward boundaries within Newcastle upon Tyne. It draws on the views expressed to us by our members and local residents. We have chosen not to submit a full alternative response to the Commission’s proposals but would like to offer some thoughts on some specific ward proposals where we have received feedback from our members or residents. Newcastle Conservatives responded to the original consultation on warding arrangements by expressing its view that the number of councillors should reduce from the current level of seventy-eight. Our original proposal was to reduce the number of councillors to fifty-two representing fifty-two single member wards. However we acknowledged that were the Council and the Commission to continue to divide the number of councillors by three then the reduction should be to fifty-four councillors with three members each representing one of eighteen wards. We set out our reasons for this in detail which we have attached as an appendix to this submission. The strong arguments in favour of a reduction appeared initially to have been accepted by the Commission, however the Commission then changed its mind after protests from the City Council. We remain disappointed that the Commission chose to cave in to pressure from Labour councillors and declined to take this opportunity to reduce the cost of politics in Newcastle and provide the City with an adequate level of representation.

Please reverse the decision on the Dene adn Manor Park ward boundariues decision and choose Newcastle Council’s Option 1 for area C as this is more in line with our communities and services.

As I reside in North Walbottle I have always thought that we have little in common with the existing Newburn ward and fully support the creation of a new Chapel ward and North Walbottle's inclusion within it. However, on reading the document, there is an apparent contradiction (which I assume is a simple slip of the pen/keyboard) - I have highlighted the error in yellow, and which should read simply Walbottle and not North Walbottle? Thank you.

  • STORRAR MARINE Newsletter October 2008 QUART in a PINT POT
    STORRAR MARINE Newsletter October 2008 QUART IN A PINT POT. Mid August I took a sneaky week off & chilled out on Peter & Anita’s Oyster 49. Holland & the Islemeer were our cruising ground, it’s probably the last time I will be invited as I never seemed to get either the stern or bow line looped over the mooring bollard when needed! Harbour master in one harbour actually gave me a standing ovation when after the sixth attempt I managed to lasso the damn thing. Having said that my skipper was remarkably calm on the occasion when with the wind up our chuff & Nimrod doing five knots under bare poles, three hundred metres before entering a large lock a large commercial barge started to get it all wrong & ‘lose its stern’. Yours truly standing by with stern line, “Don’t mess this one up” was all he said. The sight of the propeller on that barge thrashing round as they tried to straighten it up will stay etched in my memory for a long time! Pic shows Nimrod (forty nine feet long) in a fifty five foot space, I must confess this particular harbour master was superb, “Yes” he shouted above the howling wind, ‘no problem you will fit’ & we did. Talk about getting that quart in a pint pot, well done Pete. Not only was the haven meester spot on with his judgement, but to see him tie a bowline, one handed & he did it by JUST throwing the rope in the air! Late August saw me introduce my eldest daughter Kate’s boyfriend to the delights of dinghy sailing or was it dinghy swimming, ten metres off the shore of Derwent Reservoir on a breezy but sunny day we capsized (gear failure me thinks but the truth is operator error) suddenly he was swimming, fortunately I managed to make the centreboard & keep dry.
