Quoted from forza ivano
just for the sake of balance (and i'm far from being a Tory lover) Mr Dawkins would appear to be a Town fan - the vast majoritty of his tweets concern GTFC rather than politics


Hmmm....I know someone else who that could be a description of.....


Miss Scunthorpe. Not a beauty pageant, just sound advice.

I hate 'would of'' too, but as an ordinary man living in a small semi detached bungalow in New Waltham, I met Hayden Dawkins outside the poling station, when it was the time to vote for a new councillor after John Fenty. He seems to be a very pleasant, likeable and ordinary man, with absolutely no airs and graces and being fairly local unlike the other candidates, I voted for him.

Hopefully you feel your vote was earned and well placed then. I wouldn’t.

I stood for Labour in Humberston and New Waltham against Mr Dawkins. Had I known the voters of Humberston and New Waltham frequented the Fishy I'd have campaigned on here. The sad fact is that the electorate in general in that ward would vote for anything wearing a blue rosette. The opposition parties know that and expend little resource in trying to beat the Tories there. Mr Dawkins was originally set to fight another slightly less winnable seat and the good residents of that ward didn't see him for dust when JFs ultra safe seat came available.
As it was my entire campaign consisted of trying to persuade BP Vicar formerly of this board NOT to vote Tory..


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

Put aside the cobblers he’s spouting, but that is an appalling standard of literacy for a councillor.


You mean like the bloke he replaced?

Quoted from DB
I'm optimistic but I couldn't believe what I read.

Councillor Hayden Dawkins said: “I am not sure if a park and ride system will ever work in this town – but one occasion it would be useful for is football.“If Town keep on our current trajectory, I would be happy to see it cater to our matches in the Premier League in three or four seasons.”

It's impossible to do in 3 seasons but even wildly optimistic me cannot see Town in the prem in 4 seasons. But then Cllr. Dawkins might know something we don't!

About as barmy as some of your predictions last season where we were supposed to win every game and stay up.

1/ Some fans want the best for the club all the time.
2/ Some fans want the team to achieve.
3/ Some fans join in, claiming to be supporters, but only want to antagonise others.

I'm in the No1 above category.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

Not saying he is, but he my be dyslexic?


Must be part of the Tory selection criteria for Humberston candidates.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

He might be, but they’re not the same, dyslexia and poor literacy. People with dyslexia can still punctuate, spell, check back etc to varying degrees like anyone else. It’s effectively a ‘spectrum condition’ like autism.
