Amazing that we can't enforce the issue of alchohol free zones in a small area like the town centre yet the police are going to trawl the borough looking for dogs crapping
A 1000 pounds ... power hasn't corrupted him, it's made him flip his lid. I would hazzard a bet that the proceeds won't be going to new benches. Kashmir, maybe ...

I think I've discovered an advantage of your "political" style of council ... it's way more entertaining than ours, which only occasionally splits along ideological lines.
