She is one of the good ones and put herself forward as a candidate for councillor to try to help and make a difference. She’s certainly very active as a councillor whilst also working for a number of charities and community organisations and volunteering across a spectrum of roles across all of the city. She doesn’t like to take the limelight too much, but does so much behind the scenes. Doesn't look like its working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No judging by the events of the last few weeks alone, one of which led to a large number of innocent people being hospitalised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year Coun Julie Dore earned an extra £15,028 on top of her basic allowance when she was Leader while Cabinet members received an extra £9,807.18 May 2021 Not much at all really is it.

It's nothing for the commitment they give, the hours they do and the hassle they get (and ignorance they encounter). There are far easier ways of earning a crust, if these people were simply in it for the money. 1 Sheffield Forum | The Sheffield Guide | The Sheffield Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He never even bothers to reply to emails. I wish Zahira well, she's got the right attitude but then realistically how much can she actually do at local councillor level? The problems Darnall etc face need to be tackled at government level in my view. However, successive governments have shown how little they care about things like this. Big on words. Little when it comes to action. Let's hope that changes eventually. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
