The Local Labour Party

 Getting Things Done

The local Labour Party is keen to understand the issues that you find important and get from you any suggestions you may have for improvements in Largs, Skelmorlie, Fairlie and Cumbrae and the surrounding areas.

This blog is your chance to open a dialogue with us. Please feel free to add your comments. We know that local politics can sometimes excite strong feelings and stronger means of expression, so this site is moderated. We will not exclude any healthy comments or disagreemments, but it is not set up to be a political debating chamber or a slanging match. To this end comments will be monitored to exclude anything potentially libelous or otherwise offensive. This means that your comments may not appear immediately on the blog. But we really want to hear any constructive suggestions you may have, even if you think they may differ from our proposed policies, so please feel free to post your ideas here. We will respond as appropriately and honestly as we can.

Thanks for your co-operation
