The party was founded by ex-Labour members disillusioned with the council administration. After its dissolution, several members went on to join the Green Party and, later, rejoined Labour.[3]
WIN had one councillor after Colin Dow, who previously sat as an Independent after having the Labour whip removed in December 2001, created the network before the 2003 election.[4] He failed to win re-election.[5]
