Here is a campaign poster designed by my younger son (still at Sanday School):
A century ago the area covered by today's North Isles ward was served by 8 councillors, representing almost one-third of the council. Today, it is served by 3, merely one-in-seven of the councillors.
If re-elected, I shall be pushing for a commitment to be enshrined in the new council plan for OIC to strengthen and invest in Orkney's periphery.
Believe it or not, there IS going to be A WALL
(see e.g.
https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/news/islands/orkney/1163066/work-starts-on-kirkwall-flood-scheme/ or
http://www.orkney.gov.uk/OIC-News/KirkwallFloodWorks_start.htm ).
But is it to keep the folk of the North Isles out or the Kirkwallians in?
