Title: Local politicians on Twitter
Post by: Pete on January 28, 2014, 06:30:32 PM

I started to follow some local politicians recently on Twitter.

So why does a Labour councillor give the headline of a story (got me interested) but links to a site where you have to pay £13 per week to read it?

Are Labour councillors well off? Or is the news he links to only for well off folks.

Whatever happened to Labour...  :(

They're giving in to "If you can't beat 'em, join 'em" syndrome  :-X

Ken Huckle - sorry if spelling is wrong - cant go back and find out, I just unfollowed him.

Link was to the FT - about Davos - he retweeted it.
