All of this hits the dustbin almost immediately furthering the problems with the planet’s environment.

Since becoming a Councillor, I wanted to find out more about what the centre does.

I was intrigued and concerned.

I just want to thank everyone who have made this year so enjoyable.

The group is called York Young Labour and is open to anyone in York aged 26 and younger who wants to become more involved with the Labour Party.

I have been preparing for Christmas and tying up loose ends on the Council. I seconded a motion for cross ticketing on York's buses, presented a petition against the potential selling of Back Park and I have opposed the potential closure of Fulford Post Office.

I think there should be more young people standing for elections - bringing new and fresh ideas to our sometimes stagnated political process. While I was recently at the University of York, meeting new members, I came across Claire Hazelgrove, a 19-year-old, second year politics student. From our brief meeting, I could tell she was competent and extremely good-natured.
