Re: I want your desk cleared by 5....

Graham...I didn't mean independents in the sense of the independent political party.
I am talking about a consortium of councillors........and without political allegiances, they would work more like a board room works.
People would have responsibilities, according to their experiences,their skills and their talents.

I don't think party politics enhances local government. It gets in the way of cohesive working.

Never mind. I will just have to go on hoping that in some dim and distant future...when I am no longer around....someone will see that perhaps change is required, and that this cohesive working is better for everyone...until then, I suppose the petty squabbles will detract from the real work that needs doing in the borough.
C'est la vie.
