Barry Coppinger: ALL stand together

Barry Coppinger, executive councillor for social care, said the meeting was the saddest in his 27 years as a councillor
and that it was a tragedy it was having to be held at all.

“I hope this is a turning point and we all stand together and work together to defeat it,”

Re: Cleveland Police Commissioner Labour Candidate
« Reply #4 on: June 17, 2012, 11: AM »He is also a political assistant at Redcar and Cleveland Council, they changed the job title for him because you can't be both a councillor and a political assistant for a local authority at the same time.

Can anybody who is a member of a political party in this case labour support an Indpendent mayor rather than your own parties candidate be trusted to hold such an important position of PCC

To go against your own party candidate is bad enough but when you support a bad bad cop and then you want to be a PCC now that's something else isn't it

When he left CPA why didn't he discuss it with the MBRo LAB leader rather than the mayor clearly a slip up when talking to the gazette it would seem

As the saying goes if you lie down with dogs expect to get up with flees

The rallying call of the sandbaggers.

Marvellous what the chance of an even fatter pay packet will do.
