Lol do you still do that rep thing on here. I don't bother any more, if I checked the comments I'd never post again.

I'm more concerned about the sexism which is alleged goes on by the man and other councillors. silly cow is a sexist derogatory aimed at putting women down, and suggesting that being a woman makes them silly. Thats my interpretation of the comment anyway.

We still have some dinosaur councillors here that are like britcliffe, what they think will make them look good they'll push through, a good idea that the opposition suggests and will make them look good will be blocked regardless of whether it will be good for the constituents. If you'd voted gayle in you'd still have had cctv, but you'd have loads more too.

Think gayle is a lovely person, a person for the people.

councillors generally seem to fall into two camps, ones in it for the glory and power, and the others to better the town and make it a nicer place for people to live.

A calendar can say a lot about what a persons motives are. Even to an outsider like me.

Go to the meetings katex you'll constantly be shocked at bickering, slating, even fighting sometimes, as the power mad try to keep the people people as the underdogs so that they can score points against each other.

You'll also see that that the little groups that agree already know that they agree and know what each other is going to vote. This is because the do have group discussions before hand as to who will vote what, who will complain about what.

you may also find that contractors that get jobs are also friends of some councillors, they always seem to get the best value bid in as if they knew what to quote.
You can guarantee that those contractors are using machinery with well greased cogs.

It's fascinating katex it really is.
