Having read the opinion page and with the Labour leadership contest underway, I feel sure I am not alone in believing that councillor Knowles is easily the most influential Labour voice in Wyre Forest, if not the county.

A voice driven by a powerful intellect and almost messianic principles.

Back in the good doctor’s golden days all you ever heard was NHS, making it dashed difficult to understand the complexities separating New Labour and Old Asquith but here we are back once more in familiar territory; so (in a personal capacity) councillor, lets be ‘avin yer!
