Ferret would like to share with readers a comment made on www.hemsworthferret.co.uk by “Julie”.

“What everyone needs to remember is we are a community and a community that has a right to speak and a right to vote against wrong doing, I have lived over 60 years in my community and my mum who is nearly 90 years old lives in Kinsley and my Dad was a Kinsley man bred and born and a proud miner for 42 years.

He served his community, Kinsley at every chance running Kinsley boys football club, being one of the first qualified referees, playing the last post for many many years at Kinsley’s Remembrance services.

My mum worked as a home help for nearly 30 years, walking daily up to Fitzwilliam at 6am to light elderly people’s fires; as mum says they were the days.

These are Community memories from Community residents that deserve a say in how HTC and certain Councillors seem to think that our precept money should be spent, it’s time now for residents to show the certain councillors that they have had enough of the sheer wastage of money, the lack of public consultation on matters that affect us, the community and not themselves.

Time now to show we are a Community that does care and get behind and support the true Community Councillors who give their all and are a credit as an elected Councillor.

Those of you who have proven community means nothing it’s time to go RESIGN.”

This comment should show Independent Hemsworth Town Council, just what a “Community” is and means.

We are coming together as a Community, as will be shown in the upcoming Parish Meeting, where a vote of no confidence in Mr Jim Kenyon, Chair Independent Hemsworth Town Council will be sought.

Ferret echoes “Julies” final sentence – RESIGN.

  1. From the description, I believe I know Julie. I too am from Kinsley. We saw our communities destroyed before by Thatcher, but we are resilient, and looks like we need to fight for our community again. We owe people like Julie’s dad, who were pillars of the community that much. He was everything that Kenyon and co are not.
