OUR 'illustrious' MP Hilton Dawson seems intent taking up space in the Citizen and achieving very little other than making himself look foolish.
I refer in particular to last week's edition where he claimed a score draw with our local hero, Citizen Smith. From my view of the game so far Hilton Dawson has merely scored an own goal. The MP's support of the ousted Labour leader on the city council was flawed because he based his viiews on personalities and not performance and not the other way round.
As well as adversely affecting the chances of local people voting for Mr Henig at the next election Mr "Angry" Dawson could well follow in his footsteps unless he changes tack and becomes Mr Accountable and starts answering questions and not avoiding them.
