Congratulations and commiserations. These seems to be the words I hear a lot at the moment. Congratulations for raising our vote by over 300 in Park and getting a great second place. Commiserations fo not getting the extra 20 votes which would have resulted in the first Green councillor in Reading. At the count obviously it was very disappointing to get so close. Unfortunately with the next locals not till 2010 we remain two years away from our next opportunity. But as Churchill - I think - said politics is the long game. We‘ll have a bit of a rest, but will be back on the streets door-knocking, delivering newsletters and campaigning in June.
