I would like to thank the people of the Rother Vale Ward, for their substantial support in my first attempt to provide them with an elected representative that is independent of the party dogma and blinkered control that so characterises Rotherham Council. My vote of 1,558 or 30.2% was remarkable against the backdrop of the General Election and I am optimistic for the future.
Unfortunately, success has eluded me this time and the great majority of the residents in that Ward must now tolerate being 'represented' by a councillor who was kicked out by his mates in the Hoober Ward, and parachuted into his new spot by his mates at Rotherham Council.
I confess to being deeply humbled by the support that I received from my family, friends and well wishers during the campaign and I would like to take this opportunity to thank them for all the work and efforts that they so generously expended on my behalf.
Thank you all.
Rob Foulds
