Andrew Percy

Well, Andrew has gone! Moved to the South bank to fight Labour in a marginal seat.

I have served Bricknell ward for 23 years, Andrew has served for ten and was my longest serving partner in the Ward of the handful i have served with.

I shall miss his cheerful insoucience, never arriving on time, and endlessly on the phone when he walked in/out of a meeting. However I will also miss a hard-working ward member, and someone who served as a good Chairman of licensing, getting a grip on the function at a time of change. A useful debater in the chamber, Andrew at least hasd a personality and thought he was hear to make a difference. Until university Andrew lived in the Ward all his life, I know he feels the wrench of leaving but I for one wish him well and hope he gets to Westminster.

Bricknell Ward is better for Andrew's efforts and I hope he will like that as an epitaph on his public service in Hull
