The Latest from Walmer

31 May 2012 By Alan

An interesting conversation is progressing in the comments section of this article – Strangely Enough I Find Myself Sympathising With Walmer Township Protesters – on MyPE.

We would appreciate your opinion there and, more importantly, ideas on how to solve everyone’s concerns amicably because, let’s face it, our current crop of political masters look like they need a bit of help.

Over on Twitter this is what people are saying:
