I've lived in Stratford for five years and this bridge saga has been a right eye opener to me..As previous posters have stated Warwickshire County Council clearly don't give a damn about what the people of Stratford think about their town.

We have I believe three county councillors who represent the local town. What is apparent is that their influence is completely limited (in fact it raises the question as to why bother voting in local elections) since any voting that takes place in Council chambers they can and have been completely outvoted by other (dare I say voting on party lines) councillors from places as far away as Rugby & Nuneaton.

What is clear is there needs to be some proper campaign to restore some proper democratic process so the people of stratford can at least influence the decision making process..

Whilst I do not wish to make this note personal this individual "Councillor Saint" basically every time he issues a statement I am in total disagreement with him. I believe he represents Shipston?..My own view is that as I don't live in shipston my councillors should have very little influence over what goes on in Shipston..Equally as I didn't vote for Councillor Saint and cannot therefore either elect him or remove him, he should have little or no influence as to what happens where I live
