DIARY OF A MAYOR (May - September 2011)
Since Cllr Stuart Wood became Mayor of Bexhill in May he has undertaken over a hundred engagements in the community.
This is what he has been doing:

Article: Sep 30, 2011In September Battle's County Councillor Kathryn Field was one of a small number of Liberal Democrat Activists from the South East Region invited to meet Nick Clegg to discuss aspects of policy. This was a wonderful opportunity to talk to the Deputy Prime Minister in a small business meeting.
Of particular concern was the plight of the young and rising rates of unemployment among that sector. Nick explained that rates of youth unemployment have been rising since 2004. These were the good times so the clear implication is that there is something structurally wrong with the labour market. We need to expand apprenticeship schemes and accept that a good education is essential, and not necessarily a university education. We must broaden the range of vocational options.

Article: Sep 21, 2011In his keynote speech to the Liberal Democrat Conference, Party Leader and Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg has outlined his goals for the Government and the country over the coming years. He reiterated his commitment to liberal values on the environment and human rights and his determination to ensure a fair chance for every child, saying "every child can do good things, great things, if only we give them the opportunities they deserve."

Article: May 18, 2011Last week the Liberal Democrat Group on Rother District Council endorsed Cllr Kevin Dixon as their new Leader to take over from Cllr Sue Prochak. Cllr Prochak, recently re-elected to Rother with an increased personal vote, has served on Rother for 22 years and has been the Leader of the Lib Dem Group for a greater part of that time.Cllr Prochak said, 'We have been discussing the possibility of Kevin taking over the leader's role for some time now. We recognise in Kevin considerable strengths and personal qualities which make him the right person for the job. It is an appropriate time for a younger and different perspective . Leading the opposition is a considerable challenge and we know Kevin will undertake this job with commitment and determination to represent the views of residents and fight for a fairer say in the Council Chamber.Cllr Dixon was elected to serve Battle in 2007. He was the youngest President of Battle and District Chamber of Commerce and youngest Battle Town Mayor. He is passionate about Rother residents having a voice in the Town Hall, especially those of the business sector who provide employment and also the need for more affordable housing in the District. -
