Here we go again. I seem to recall there was a thread about a year ago on the dearth of statues/works of art around Accy. There is still nowt. I also recall about a year ago a thread on the utter waste of public money on the so-called Mele in Oakhill Park. Did somone say that last years would be the last?

So now what do we find? None other than our good friend Gayle splattering all over the place the fact that this bash is to occur once again; in other words, another ten grand of public money thrown away on an ethnic knees-up.

I have no poblem with these parties; but surely they should be self-financing. In the meantime, what has been wasted on such events over the last years could have been put to far better use in creating some lasting artwork/sculpture in Accy town centre. With enough to go round, maybe for Church, Ossy, etc as well.
