Spent an hour on Friday evening showing the new Chief Executive around Pan ward, though was mainly on the estate. He was very keen to see what all the focus on Pan is about and left I hope with a better understanding of why there is that focus, even though compared to most mainland urban areas the estate is quite delightful. I told him that the putting down of Pan locally is just historic and ignorant snobbery about social housing.
Tomorrow I am off to the Local Government Association conference in Bournemouth for the week, together with the Council Leader and another Cabinet member. Never before will I have spent so much time with so many Conservatives; fortunately the LGA does have a Labour Group !
