Personnally, I agree that Tameside Council is a bad one. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 82.24.73.121 (talk • contribs) 16:36, 1 October 2006.
"==Politics== The Leader of the Council is Councillor Roy Oldham CBE, who is currently the longest serving council leader in the United Kingdom. He first took up the post in 1980, a year after the Labour Party re-gained control of the council from the Conservatives. He has held the post ever since. He represents the Longdendale Ward for the Labour Party. " This section is not relevent to this page. It seems to glorify Cllr Oldham, and his CBE. I shall remove it within the next two days unless an objection is made. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 80.0.69.131 (talk • contribs) 14:46, 3 March 2007.
Disagree. He's the longest serving council leader (ever) in the UK, which is noteworthy. The politics section should be expanded though, so its not all about him, or else merged with another section. --82.69.133.226 11:00, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
I think that there should be a separate Tameside Council page which goes into the details of the local politics within Tameside, perhaps an article should be started? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Gayboy-ds (talk • contribs) 09:54, 7 June 2007.
I agree with the above comment, 'glorify Cllr Oldham'. People in Tameside certainly get that impression! Every newspaper in Tameside seems to have a picture of Cllr Oldham on the front cover, and of course slyly mentioning his CBE in the articles. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 80.0.69.131 (talk • contribs) 19:01, 19 June 2007.
- Your opinion might have held more weight if you hadn't tried to switch the councilor's title from CBE to MBE. You may benefit from reading Wikipedia's policy on the Neutral Point of View and the section on dealing with bias in particular. Road Wizard 20:44, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
