Your Droylsden East Labour team work hard for residents all year round. Our reputation has been built up over many decades. Local people know we are always available to help.

Your Labour team care what local people think and are the only party that listens to and regularly ask for your comments. Last year we delivered  6 separate leaflets as well as our annual Christmas card. Something no other organisation can match.

Our pledge for 2011 is to continue listening to you and working hard to help make sure that Droylsden improves. We will also be keeping a close check on the Metrolink works as it moves through Droylsden.

As we welcome in the New Year can we wish all our residents a happy and prosperous 2011.

Cllr Kieran Quinn, Cllr Susan Quinn and Cllr Jim Middleton wish all residents a very Merry Christmas.

This is the time of year that we think of family and friends.

It is also right that we spend a moment to think about those who are on their own at this time.

Whatever your circumstances we hope you have a peaceful and joyous holiday.

The May 2010 election result in Droylsden East showed how voters appreciate the excellent work your 3 Labour Councillor’s do - ALL YEAR ROUND.

Once again, given a clear choice at this election, voters in Droylsden put Labour first.

Local people know it is not by chance that Tameside’s Labour Council is one of the best performing Councils in the country.

The BNP had a disastrous election. Not only did their actual vote fall, their share of the vote halved.

The Tories had privately talked up their chances of coming second, however they missed out by only 16 votes. Voters in Droylsden stuck with Labour - for that we are indebted.

Our pledge to local people is to make sure your faith in Labour is returned with continued hard work and dedication.

You may recall the frustration of your 3 Labour Councillors with Metrolink's designers and planners when they decided to put this street light right in the middle of the new footpath, blocking its use for anyone with a pram or a motorised buggy.
