Allan Grant, Mayor of Sodor

Mayor of Sodor and Chairman of the Sodor Island Council since 2002. Local politician since 1976. Independent of political parties.

[Allan Grant, Mayor of Sodor @SodorMayor]

I'm pleased to confirm that Her Majesty The Queen has appointed our dear governor to a second term.

[Allan Grant, Mayor of Sodor @SodorMayor]

Reports are coming in of high voter turnout across the Island.

I wish all candidates well.

[Allan Grant, Mayor of Sodor @SodorMayor]

@BuckwaterOliver @NWRNicholasHatt @Sodor_Roadways @NScrapyard Enough! The Island Council's Transport Board will take over full control of Sodor Roadways until we can find another private partner to run the franchise.

I will ensure that all bidders are fully scrutinised to ensure that a man like Beckett does not manipulate things again.

[Allan Grant, Mayor of Sodor @SodorMayor]

There's been a scuffle in the Council Hall today! Over whether to have a star or an angel on the Council Christmas Tree...

In more productive events, the Island Council has backed the Northern Development Scheme proposed by the Ooyre Valley District Council.

[Allan Grant, Mayor of Sodor @SodorMayor]

@ChiefSsrc @archosx1 Uh, yes Chief Howard?

[Allan Grant, Mayor of Sodor @SodorMayor]

@NWRNicholasHatt @jamestoddrepair @BeckettSir @GovernorOfSodor You overestimate the power of local government.

[Allan Grant, Mayor of Sodor @SodorMayor]

@GovernorOfSodor Governor, I require an urgent meeting with you at the County Hall at your earliest convenience.

[Allan Grant, Mayor of Sodor @SodorMayor]

@EBNLive The words of the Governor do not reflect the views of the Office of the Mayor and the Sodor Island Council.

[Allan Grant, Mayor of Sodor @SodorMayor]

@GovernorOfSodor Quite right, but someone has to do it!

[Allan Grant, Mayor of Sodor @SodorMayor]

@GovernorOfSodor Good day, Governor. How goes it being Her Majesty's representative on our fair Island?

[Allan Grant, Mayor of Sodor @SodorMayor]

@GovernorOfSodor Easier than my job! I feel like a headmaster presiding over a group of unruly schoolchildren sometimes...

[Allan Grant, Mayor of Sodor @SodorMayor]

A performance by Allicia Botti will take place at the Suddery Opera House next Saturday!

[Allan Grant, Mayor of Sodor @SodorMayor]

@Class08BR I don't know why you're Tweeting at me, this is a railway matter not a political one! But I must note you don't actually show any evidence for their supposed terrible scheme.

[Allan Grant, Mayor of Sodor @SodorMayor]

@TheDowagerHatt I'm sure I can find time in my schedule for that!

[Allan Grant, Mayor of Sodor @SodorMayor]

@ChiefSsrc @Rogue_Diesel You better be! Or need I remind you that your employment contract is up for renewal soon.

[Allan Grant, Mayor of Sodor @SodorMayor]

I am visiting the Island Record Office today to celebrate its centenary.

[Allan Grant, Mayor of Sodor @SodorMayor]

@DrBonder_ Yes, I did!

[Allan Grant, Mayor of Sodor @SodorMayor]

The long hours spent waiting to find out if you've been re-elected...

[Allan Grant, Mayor of Sodor @SodorMayor]

@betramhatt3 Hmm, perhaps not... I'm not all that familiar with Mainland politics anyway.

[Allan Grant, Mayor of Sodor @SodorMayor]

I must say that, so far, I am very unimpressed by our new Prime Minister.

[Allan Grant, Mayor of Sodor @SodorMayor]

@betramhatt3 Think I should offer to lead a National Government?
