For those of you new to Broadlands and those of you that moved here from the start, the original Development Brief for our community is still available here.   Worth turning to page 24 - spot the odd one out.

A statement from Ian Spiller @imspiller

Dear All,

As all the relevant people have now been informed, I wish to make it public that I have tendered my immediate resignation from the Conservative Party, unfortunately due to a number of issues both locally and nationally I feel unable to represent you as a conservative when my views are quite clearly different from a large proportion of the mainstream party.

I have always considered myself to be independently minded, and a very liberal conservative, one who even has socialist tendancies, as such I am unable to rationalise my position within any mainstream political grouping.

I have therefore with a great deal of thought decided that I am best to serve you as your local community councillor as an independent representative where I am free to express my own opinions regardless of whether they differ of clash with the opinions and views of those whos colours I chose to wear.

For me local politics is about representing and serving people to the best of your ability, and having the energy and dynanism to speak out for your community. I hope with the campaign I have led regarding changing to the Princess of Wales Hospital and my work within Broadlands and Laleston Community Council I have shown myself to be that person, and I will continue to serve you with the same energy, drive and determination as an Indepedent.

I would like to thank my former colleagues in the Welsh Conservatives for their support and assistance over the last few years, I have made some great friends and enjoyed our times together.

Many thanks for your support.

Ian Spiller
