TORY COUNCILLOR MISSING!


We seek him here...we seek him there....?
Has anybody seen Elthorne Conservative Councillor JONATHAN OXLEY? The good people of Hanwell voted him in to represent them last May and are seriously concerned at his continual absence throughout most of the year. Whilst being one of the beneficiaries of the generous rise in allowances that Tory chief, Cllr Stacey, awarded his team weeks after gaining power, Cllr Oxley has attended very few meetings indeed during the past year and cannot be said to have earned it or fulfilled his responsibilities to local people. Perhaps his noticeable absence at Council and Hanwell Area Committee meetings is explainable by the fact that he is alleged to spend much of his time abroad. In that case, Hanwell residents are wondering why he stood to represent them in the first place? Residence overseas is an odd qualification for a Hanwell councillor? We hope he makes the appropriate deductions from his allowance?
