against the mega-farm was Councillor Glenn Harwood. I am sorry to
have to say that Glenn died yesterday of a suspected heart attack.
He was one of those local politicians who get so little credit yet

the people of Higham Ferrers. He was a leading supporter of the
magnificent Rushden Lakes retail and leisure development. He was an
integral part of my listening campaign and turned up to campaign

paratrooper who fought in the Falklands war and was quite rightly

sincere sympathy. I know he will be sorely missed by all...
