Political Views &
Past News

A plain archive of political material, with some history, football and personal stuff, 
from before 7 Oct 2012

Before "News and Political Views", started, a number of (now lapsed) web-sites covered campaigning work in Mapperley ward, the City of Nottingham and South Derbyshire; and then Bridge ward.  
Posts, photos, articles and images from 1989 to 2012 are being brought together here for occasional reference.
