And we also need to consider that, actually, the objectives that central government has set for local government are so conflicting that if you were to stand for election as a local candidate to a local board, to a community board, or to your city council or district council, you would find on day one, having been elected on a particular platform—unless you were a member of the Labour Party and you had signed up to support every single policy that the Labour Party proposed—in other words, you weren't really a candidate for your local constituents; you were simply a vehicle or a voice for Labour policy, which is what we found out about so many local elected members, mayors, and councillors over the past year or so. They haven't said boo about the policies that this Government has introduced that are wrecking their communities, whether it's the Government policy statement on transport, which is encouraging local councils to take up parking and paint streets blue if you want—better candidates, it's not good to ask them to sign up to stuff like wrecking town centres and wrecking local businesses.
