Never had much time for Rob Waltham TBH but I’m not ashamed to say we sure need him now to step up and help out, he is a fan from boyhood so maybe his conscience might sway him to take a good look at our situation.
I would imagine he has half an eye on it anyway – and you would hope he’s not just going to sit on his hands.
It would be great for him politically to be proactive about securing GP. I don’t mean that people would suddenly vote for his party, I mean at a personal level. There’s no getting round the fact it would give him serious kudos and status in the town.
However, I seem to think there is history between Waltham’s administration and Peter Swann! So I don’t know quite how it would work – other than appealing to Swann’s better nature and allowing him to leave the situation thinking he has won in some way.
