“Tell me, Alan,” Reh said to me after another evening delivering leaflets, “what do you think the public’s response would be if the Council re-opened the flyover and gave £50,000 to the Sunlight Centre?” Obviously, I immediately saw scenes of jubilation eminating from campaigners who have worked hard to see this happen, before coming to a stark realisation. “They’d never do it,” I responded. How wrong I was.
Reh just looked over his glasses at me, and said “don’t tell anyone”. So I didn’t. And, sure enough, the front page of today’s Medway Messenger said it all: Medway Council’s Conservative cabinet plans to re-open the flyover and is also giving the Sunlight Centre a £50,000 interest-free loan!
