Labour’s Motion No1 will breath new life into Northumberland’s ‘Dead Cats’ and may cause a meltdown among the fractured Conservatives?

Wednesday September 1st 2021:NCC Full Council.

Northumberland Labour Group has placed a motion onto the Councils agenda to try to engage the massive conservative controlled Northumberland Unitary Council into a debate to derive more equality for women in local politics.

From a real murky point of view this is the right time to bring an equality motion to the fore. Labour has aggressively fought itself for two decades to ensure equality among candidate numbers and encourage more women into local politics at all levels and this motion from their Leader, Councillor Scott Dickinson in support of women's rights, is designed to engage the Council into a debate on equality of action as well as the little bit of stiff upper lip service that emits from the faces of all the broken groups of Tories on the Council. The debate on the matter may bring the splits among the anti-social Tories to the fore. It could, if the Morpeth splinter Group decide to talk, get people to ask if the Taliban operates from County Hall in Morpeth as some of the attitudes and platitudes towards women from elected Conservative Councillors has been disgraceful over the last 13 years since the Unitary Council was formed.

From the moment that a leading conservative began threatening to sue anyone who mentioned he was allegedy involved in a sex worker scandal. The Tories, particularly those from the Morpeth splinter group have gained a reputation for their anti-women antics. The well publicised botched suspension of the female councils chief executive officer and the recent attacks during the debate on changing a health and social care contractor against the Councils female head of finance are just a couple of pointers out in the public domain which illustrate the hidden attitudes of Conservatives against women and the equality of women in society.

We at the Murky wish to use a 2021 video link from the open web pages of the ‘Farmers Weekly’, to illustrate the problems facing women in rural society today and let us all note if Councillors from Northumberland will support the Labour Group equality motion in Morpeth, a Town famous as the birthplace of equality activist Emily Davidson or will the costs of equality become the catalyst for another carpet sweep and the treatment of women be placed behind the costs of veterinary services for the stock on their farms, a matter the County Council has to take into consideration ever since the national foot and mouth epidemic was alleged to have started from a base in rural Northumberland?
