How hard-working is your city councillor?

August 10, 2007

Today I have been named as one of York’s hardest working Councillors by the Press newspaper.

Richard Harris began writing about some low attendance records to Council meetings and then wrote, “But many councillors have been to every meeting they were expected to and include Coun James Alexander, council leader Steve Galloway and Coun Dave Taylor. Another top performing councillor is Ann Reid.”

I know I work hard but I was not expecting this accolade. I have made pledges to the people who elected me and I will not let them down. That is why I work hard.

James Alexander

Hello there, I am the Prospective Labour MP for York Outer.

I am a young, Labour Councillor for Holgate ward in the City of York. I won my seat against the national trend, from the Liberal Democrats. More recently I have also been elected as York's Children and Young People's Champion.

I am hoping to use this medium to let you know what it is like to be a Councillor, what it is like to stand for Parliament, to build a conversation between myself and residents and to encourage more people to get involved in our community. It is time that more ordinary people like me got involved in politics. I think it is time for change.
