The Ambridge Socialist

Is the Archers biased against the Welsh?
The Ambridge Socialist has noted concerns that the Archers is biased against the Welsh.
Ambridge is set quite close to the Welsh border with England and occasional benign references are heard to Welsh hill farmers.
Yet two active characters Natasha, who is Tom’s partner, and a successful business woman, and Gavin, son of Kirsty’s partner are both identifiably Welsh and also rather unpleasant people.
Ambridge Socialist Editor Keith Flett said, this may be no more than coincidence but it is noticeable
Aldridge not purged from the BL Board
Brian Aldridge has not been purged from the BL Board for leaking confidential information to Phoebe about the recent greenwashing deal. As often clearly they prefer Brian in the tent urinating out.
Ten Years since Nigel Pargetter was murdered: No Justice! No Peace!
It is ten years today since Nigel Pargetter ‘fell off’ the roof of Lower Loxley while attempting to take down Christmas decorations and was killed instantly.
The BBC called it ‘Shaking Ambridge to the Core’.
Perhaps it did since Pargetter was one of the more engaging Archers characters and they don’t come along all that often..
However after cursory investigations nothing at all was done about Pargetter’s death.
There was a man on the roof with him that night and that man was David Archer.
Archer was never arrested over Pargetter’s death yet he had an obvious motive to see Pargetter dead. Pargetter was a rival to Archer’s plan, still very much in progress, to dominate South Borsetshire. Lower Loxley was a symbol of an alternative power base.
We say its time, ten years on, to re-open the case of the death of Nigel Pargetter and this time bring David Archer in for questioning.
Should David Archer face justice for the alleged murder of Nigel Pargetter?
