A ringing endorsement!

I was absolutely delighted to read on Thursday that John Guthrie has been endorsed in his Candidacy for Mayor of Bedford by Cllr Apu Bagchi who is one of my two Independent Councillors here in Castle Ward in Bedford. I have only got to know Apu in the last year, but I regard him as one of Bedford's Elder Statesmen, if he won't mind me using that description. Apu has been a pillar of support for the Save Our Civic Campaign, and I have found him to be an absolutely solid and top class gentleman. I've only got to know him in the last year or so, but some people make an immediate impression. Thank you Apu.
