12th April - Peter Box promised a new Multi Party Agreement to replace the Unilateral Undertaking, since then what exactly has happened???? Not much form where I'm sitting!

Looks to me like the media need re-engaging as that's the only time he bothers even appearing to get involved.

I will, thanks very much. If you think that my vote for an effective and equitable Government has anything to do with lack of movement on the stadium front you've got a pretty loose grip on reality.



Not much point heckling the Tories now, they're in total disarray and Pickles is probably more worried about his contribution to Grenfell than he is about a (currently) non-existent stadium.

5 years ago we had a conservative coalition in power, for the past two years Newmarket has had a conservative MP, now we currently have a conservative minority government in power. I'm not sure why you're trying to pin this on a those who voted for a party who have not presided over any of it in Westminster

Does anyone have contact details for the 2 national papers who ran with this story.

They should be the first points of contact to follow up.



Although, as Wakeyrule" intimates, at the moment, our plight will be so far down the shaft of politicians and journalists' interest that, we may struggle to get any kind of response.



Even our re-elected MP's wont be concerned with Trinity atm.



Nobody will be rushing down to BV for a photo shoot.

Its nothing to do with Political Party, Box has not one single interest in left, right, , liberal, he is only interested in power. Lets not turn in on ourselves falling out about politics, its not about Labour or Conservative , its about Box ; a power crazed bully. Lets not attack each others political beliefs thats just what Box wants, to divide and rule, thats why he he steered us towards BV knowing that it would split us,

...spot on Belly.

cos he supports CAS!

The only way I can see us getting anywhere with the bent people involved is by taking legal action. It stinks

I am, dementia tax scrapped, fox hunting scrapped, Grammar Schools, Winter fuel cuts, meals for kid being cut all scrapped.







On the stadium however, we didnt do council elections so not really relevant. What happened to the meeting last week?

I received correspondence from Comrade Box this morning saying progress is being made and council have asked developer to make a few amendments to new agreement.

Comrade Box also states there has been a new Trust set up and the developer wants to work with them instead of old Trust.

I wonder if new Trust is headed up by Sir Rodney. If so back to square one with Walker, Mackie and Box stitching us up again.

Where are the Trust in all this? I don't like to be critical, because of the voluntary nature of the job and TRB's inevitable tantrum, but why do they persist with either silence, non-statement statements, or cryptic messages about sensitive discussions that can't be disclosed?



Why not just get the facts out there - and let people power bring Box out of hiding like it did last time? The silence is maddening, especially when Box is writing to people and giving more information than the Trust themselves.



If it's true that he failed to attend the meeting and there is no forward progress - then get back in touch with the two national journalists who ran the story originally, and tell them the facts - they love a nice easy follow up that is basically written for them; that hits social media, and bingo - another wave of negative publicity for Box and WMDC.

The councils new chief executive only started on monday so that will have slowed things down as she will have to be involved in signing anything off etc. I'm prepared to give her a bit of time to get her feet under the table and get up to speed with all the goings on. We then need a meeting with her spelling out the true gravitas of the situation and if there is no positive outcome from that then it's time to go to town. But it's not only courtesy to give her chance to prove herself and find out her opinions it also removes a convenient excuse for the council by moving on them too soon, by then she will have no excuse not to be on the ball.
