Cally Festival Cllr Paul Convery on the changing Cally Road

Posted on July 5, 2011 by William Perrin

Paul Convery and his fellow councillors did a lot of work behind the scenes to make sure that the road closure, licensing and permissions all came through for the festival to go ahead.  Here he reflects on the future for the changing Cally and how the festival has opened people's eyes to what a great, vibrant, diverse area this is.

    A lot of good points. Pitty he used the word Gentrification, such a malicious and dogmatic word which is too strong as well as being outdated political/ideological rhetoric (worrying). Otherwise, well said.
