Are the tables turning in Quedgeley? Since the march to the Javelin Park incinerator site a few weeks ago dozens of anti-incinerator posters have been popping up in windows across Quedgeley and the whole of Gloucester.
Local people still stop me in the street to convey their surprise that not a single one of their local Tory councillors bothered to turn up for the march against the council’s incinerator plans.
It just goes to show. While things may be tough for the government on a national level, local Labour campaigns can still have a real impact.
Quedgeley may not traditionally be Labour. But one thing’s for sure. Unless the Tories back down on their plans for a giant incinerator and listen to local people, the tables could turn against them.
