Post election movements and rumours
South Tyneside to get new opposition grouping?
Hearing some rumours this evening that a tentative deal may have been discussed between Independent Alliance Cllr. Jane Branley, Conservative Cllr. Jeff Milburn, and UKIP Cllr. David Potts to form a new opposition grouping on South Tyneside Council following Labours massive victory last Thursday. Possibly more news to follow after I try to seek confirmation tomorrow.
This could end up as the pottiest post I’ve ever penned, time will tell.




























The 3 Amigos; we await developments with interest.Certainly Cllr Potts was rooting ands tooting for Cllr Milburn pre election.

Well initial inquiries are very interesting, one senior source confirms, whilst others appear reticent to say anything just yet.
