Who should run for Sheffield's Mayor?

Recommended Posts

A thread just for suggestions of who should be Mayor of Sheffield. It would not be unrealistic for whoever gets the backing of the Sheffield Forum to romp home. Just names please (and brief resume if we'll never have heard of them). We can do a poll once we have a good list...

 

I'll start-

Okay, one celebrity suggestion and you've convinced me to vote no in the referendum.

We have a very difficult situation here to follow i.e do you vote yes or no for what would appear in some instances to be an all powerful person !

I think it would make a great deal of difference to folks opinion if we had a list of candidates before we voted.

My choice, well at the moment I honestly don't know. I am going to vote yes, because with an individual in place I read that Sheffield will have a large amount of cash coming it's way.

A good part of that money should be used to get kids into work.

Kids leaving school and facing years on the dole is a TRAGEDY !!

Whatever makes you think we could all agree on a politician?

Of course, anyone who ever worked in Sheffield and chose to leave might then be told that they were never welcome back, not even to visit for an evening.

Er, why not await the Referendum's outcome? If it decides "No", there'll be no elected Mayor.

Sheffield is a backwater stuck in the 30s.

 

It's a Labour stronghold because the majority of voters rely on state handouts for their booze, fags and nappies.

 

Those who have nothing - because it hasn't been given them - detest those who have something - despite or because they got off their backsides to get it.

 

So, who would make a good mayor?

 

Who gives a ****? Just keep me in fags, ale and diapers.

Somebody who wants to run a £1.5-billion organisation for £40 grand a year, and get showered with approbrium every day.
