When our government is making difficult decisions that they know will be unpopular but necessary it is vital that we are the advocates for all that is best in our administration. The last government tried only to make popular decisions, by throwing money and words at everything, and look at the trouble they caused us. In difficult times it is easy, and a little understandable, to keep one’s head down and look after number one but we are all in this together and we must look after each other, make the case for these difficult decisions, and keep the momentum of change going. Would we really want a return to a Labour Chancellor who is advocating the same programme as Gordon Brown?
It is very easy to relax after an election victory but after a well earned rest we must return revitalised. If we let our distribution networks lose touch, our committee meetings lapse, our fundraisers fail to take off we are storing up more work for ourselves. We must continue to keep our machinery going and our parties enjoyable. We must never forget that all political work is voluntary, paid for by local subscriptions but it is the congregation of people that keeps the party alive. Please keep in touch and join up.
SDCA has given an internship to a local girl who is keen to progress in marketing to plan, write, execute and evaluate the project which we aim to complete before the end of November. I am delighted that we are able to provide some practical assistance that will help to improve employment chances in our area. If someone is looking for a graduate to fill a marketing role please get in touch. Our last intern has started her training to be a barrister so we are trying to do our bit!
