Council Nominees

 TBA: 
 Cllr Bill Mordue: I am a Labour Councillor and an apprentice trained fitter by trade, having worked in the railway industry until the late 90's.

Following the abolition of SYCC, I went to work for Doncaster Council until taking early retirement in 2002. I was elected as a Councillor for the Central Ward in 2002 and have been a member of Mayor Winters' cabinet since 2003. In May 2007, I was re-elected for another four year period. On a personal level, I have an interest in all types of sport, music and socialist politics
