Accyman, we are supposed to sit nicely, quietly and believe what our local representatives tell us.
We are not supposed to use our eyes to see what is really happening......and certainly not our mouths to protest at the way things are going, because we cannot see how good the place is.
Good....as in good compared to what?
The Observer took a poll of people in the district recently. The vast majority felt that the town had gone downhill....but yet our local representatives think otherwise.....so of course they must be right......and all those polled were just moaning and being negative about the wonderful market(?),the fabulous shops(?).The thing is, if we can be bamboozled into thinking, believing, that everything is hunky dory, then the local representatives need expend absolutely no effort in doing anything to change the problems that we might think are apparent in our town.
