Then maybe we should make the trough a saucer instead.

When people say it will never happen here, they close their minds to the possibilities, and stop looking for solutions to problems.......and the problems(certainly with the last administration - can't comment on this new one because it is too new) were that some of the councillors...notably the leader saw themselves as bigger than the needs of the borough.
It was all top show.......or as my mother used to say...silk frock and no knickers.

It just seems to me that we learn nothing from experience...we, the electorate of the borough will put up with the same old, same old...because it is the easiest option.....don't whatever you do rock the boat or muddy the water...it will upset the political parties......they have to look like they are worth something.

But hey, what the hell do I know??????
