Councillors in Hyndburn - Are they fit for purpose?

Nothing so far has slipped by me, I can see where you are attempting to go, but Gayle isn't a Councillor, therefore as the title suggests could you stay with the councillors? If you wish to call Gayle and her projects there are plenty of threads already dedicated to this but your shallow attempts in previous posts to imply that she turns a blind eye to corruption for the sake of her own job is not only petty but an insult against a hard working, (if mis-directed) person.

No it isn't 'germane' to this thread, the thread is:-

Councillors in Hyndburn - Are they fit for purpose?

Not:-

Is Gayle in on this somehow?

Brilliant! Funniest thing I've heard for a long time.

Graham, do you really think the likes of Harriet Harman and John Reid are genuinely interested Hyndburn? Are you just very gullible or are you attempting to pull the wool over the electorate's eyes?

I still fail to see the connection to me. Would you care to answer this Gondola, or is this one of the occasions when you're going to change the subject or avoid the question?

I think it is sad you're so cynical but I must say you do so with such vibrant blue and undisguised rinse.

John Reid was candid. That was my view. I didn't see you there but just in case I missed you hiding in the cupboard, could you tell me which words of Dr Reid's you disagreed with in 50 Abbey Street?

I don't know about anyone else but thanks to this, 'I will reveal all the dirty goings on to do with our Councillors thread', which has been going on for over a fortnight, there is not a paper shredder to be purchased anywhere within the Hyndburn boundary, why?

The reason why is quite obvious, everyone from the top to the bottom at the council be they guilty of multi-million pound frauds or whether they just 'borrowed' a biro has been working deep into the night making sure that if the spit hits the fan there will not be a paper trail leading back to them.

But on the good side of this, all this over-time will have been voluntary, so gondola has managed to get rid of a very large paper mountain without a penny of it going on the Council Tax, for that reason if not for the fact that his almost 'witty remarks', have kept me entertained for all this time, i would like to nominate gondola as accywebs very own,

Don't think a blue rinse would suit my quiff, dear. However, I assume you've come over all metaphorical and that you're expounding the theory that everyone who mistrusts the government is a dyed-in-the-wool Tory. If that were true, old Matey Dave would be cracking open the bottles of champers right now. What you don't seem to appreciate is that cynicism about this deceitful administration which, amongst other things, lied to us in order to take us into an unnecessary and disastrous war stretches right across the political divide.

And yes, you're right I wasn't in the cupboard - I've better things to do with my time than listen to the weasel words of a third-rate politician grubbing for votes. Why, did I miss anything?

Wynonie will stop it I spilt my tea reading your reply to 'junior Jones', he along with his vote catching mate should be on candid camera, I suggest a visit to 'specsavers 'is in order, the rose tinted variety.

If only this were true, and HBC recycled it's waste, which it doesn't, at least some good could come of all this.

I would make a good councillor for one of these wards don't you agree Garinda?

I think you are sounding more and more like a politican.

I'm sure the Socialist Worker's Party will be very pleased to have you on board.

Some good will come of this garinda, the very fact that we are discussing the subject, 'are Hyndburn Councillors fit for purpose',as Less stated shredding and sweeping will be going on at no expence to the public, but some things cannot be washed or papered over as they are beyond the control of the guilty parties, who have crossed one bridge to far.

Not the party I had in mind.

But we seem to be going round in ever decreasing cirlces discussing it, without naming any guilty party.

Maybe someone can tell me which candidate for election on May 3 has had their nomination papers signed by another Councillor, who claims to be of an Independent persuasion.

Yes it is very frustrating claytonender, all I can suggest is that you make yourself known to gondola, and he may enlighten you, as you seem to be a reasonable chap.

So we have to be in gondolas' 'club' to get him to open up to us do we?

Well I'm glad that I don't seem to be a 'reasonable' chap, we don't need a secret society associated with accyweb.
