I think PB has probably had people do his bidding in the past, and finds it a bit tedious to not have the power anymore.

Its a pity really that the council now seems leaderless, if your the leader then you should take on the mantle and whats goes with it, its no use having a column in the local rag called the Leaders Column, yet the leader never uses it but nominates somebody to fill the space, its a bit like David Cameron or Gorden Brown conducting business in the house then refusing to take or present yourself to the media, if your the leader your the leader, and entails everything which goes with the office, and all this crap about we're all working together is a total nonsense, do you think for one minute that if Jonesie was still around the same thing would have happened, not a snowball in hells chance. The council now resembles an headless chicken with nobody in charge
