"It’s 4am when my dog shoves her nose into my ribs, to wake me!!!??(Look out for this classic coming from Cllr Cottam in the above link: "Coming home, I pass someone with a spade over his shoulder, walking into Leigh in the hope of casual work on one of the new building sites. He wants a word too......" You just couldn't make it up.. could you now)
Labour Cllr. Dr Christine Cottam getting ready to meet her constituents yesterday.Dr Christine Cottam to appeal after £200 fine
A LEIGH councillor has been found guilty of assaulting a former rugby star.
Leigh East representative Dr Cllr Christine Cottam 61, of Birley Street, denied attacking ward resident Colin Tyrer but was fined £200 at Wigan and Leigh Magistrates’ Court on Friday.
The case is believed to have risen as the result of a dog attack while the two were walking their pets in February.
It is alleged Dr Cottam picked up a lead and swiped sixties’ Leigh and Wigan full back and goal kicking ace Mr Tyrer across the face with it......A founder member of LASARS (Leigh Asylum Seekers and Refugee Support) she also supports EFIG-Africa, a charitable organisation helping impoverished girls through education. The full report can be found by clicking on the link here:
Wigan borough Solicitor Kevin Lawson: “We are aware of the court proceedings and the outcome. We have been notified that the councillor concerned intends to appeal. The level of penalty imposed by the court was such that it does not affect her continuing standing as a member of the council.”
I wonder if anyone else in 'the real world' would have wormed their way out of this assault with barely a slap on the wrist?
Another entry to the Liars, Buggers and Thieves blog I hope?

Another, like Fovargue, who bend over backward for her "newcomer", Immigrant constituents. This woman needs removing from office QUICK. The BNP will look after our own, though we know, that if elected, we will have to treat "newcomers" Immigrants in the same manner as we would any other constituent. But would aim at redressing the balance away from putting the "newcomers" Immigrants as TOP PRIORITY. BRITISH FIRST, BRITISH JOBS FOR BRITISH WORKERS.
I know of 4 people personally that have been verbally abused by this so called 'pillar of our community.' are we not meant to look up to and respect our counsellors? Respect is earned and I for one do not understand how a woman who treats her constituents in the manner that she does is still in post.
Anonymous.. The arrogance, contempt and disregard these Councillors spew is obscene, as is the local Rag.... the Wigan Evening Post, denying the true Wigan person a right of reply, yet the UAF\SWP trolls are welcome.
Thank God we have this site, for decent, fair Wigan people to voice their concerns. Spread the word, we WILL NOT BE SILENCED !!!
Unfortunately, we have a superabundance of these contemptuous, evil and vile individuals masquerading as upstanding pillars of the community serving their local constituents whilst at the same time plotting with their comrades in the Labour Party on how further to degenerate and disfigure our once beautiful and proud town.
Cllr. Christine Cottam and the remainder of the local Labour Party are beyond reproach - they are the untouchables - they are cunning, manipulative and know they have succeeded in dumbing down the "sheeples" of Leigh and Wigan to ensure the Labour Party will continue to curry favour with the hoodwinked electorate for years and years to come - that is of course until the day of reckoning arrives - and you will see many of these same people as Cllr. Cottam who backed the downtrodden indigenous into this inevitable corner will cower in absolute fear when the majority turn their suicidal world upside down. And I will certainly make it my quest to ensure that all those who collaborated in this genocidal mindset are brought to justice and explain just how they could go beyond the decent realms of decency and humanity all for the sake of some ludicrously sick and doomed to fail ideology?
Leigh, Lancashire Nationalist......
