Deiniolen in Focus

Congratulations are in order.

After 12 years of being Deiniolen ward's county councillor, Plaid Cymru's Len Jones has finally faced an election and finds himself voted in as a member of Gwynedd Council. Until this year, he had always been unopposed.

This year, he was challenged by two other candidates: Alan Pritchard for Labour and Ian Franks (me) for Llais Gwynedd.

Although I was defeated in this year's election, I will be keeping a watchful eye on the activities of Cllr Len - as well as taking a close look at the needs of Deiniolen ward and all of us who live here. And I fully intend to challenge Len again in the next council election in 2012.
