See that Cllr. Dobson stated to the Observer, that he didn't even know they ran a poll (well, have to sorta' believe him I suppose). Bet you know Jaysay.

Then he throws his toys out of his pram by stating: "I am getting a bit fed up of all this now. All I was doing was trying something a little bit different and I get all this aggro". sob, sob. You will sir, if you are not willing to explain to us common folk exactly how you did it !! Then we can judge.
you keep out of my domain, I am common.:D

Why is it that whenever I read "There is no suggestion that..........." it immediately sounds to me like that is exactly what they are suggesting?

Dont see the problem to be honest. Charities have benefited in the long run.

Because you have a very suspicious mind like me Willow, but I'm not sugesting that TD knew anything about it:D

Still missing the point Alvin ! We don't really know if they have raised any more than normal.

Does it really matter kate, as Alvin as made a valid statement, charities have benefitted after all, okay TD didn't use the normal methods but there was nothing illegal and everything was up and above board, I can't see the problem myself, mind you I'm a pragmatist and don't look to find he worst in people, except one that is:D no names no pack drill:rolleyes:

Grrrrr .. losing the will to live now ... :eek::silly:

We still do not know how they benifited and where the 10% came from !.. if was from the £ 10,000 .. that would be roughly £8,000 paid out from this and the other charities would have lost out ! (Although Cllr. Dobson has stated in reply to a letter 1,000's left in the pot for other charities.. look forward to the audit). Just wanted to know how it was worked that is all !! May have even voted a Yes on the poll if it had been explained.

bogus letters rigging of opinion polls. Both supporting Conservatives. Using tax payers money they spend hours upstairs on those computers churning out press release after press release. I wish they would give more time to the finances.

Ooooh, turn your moby off and get another bevvy. :rolleyes::D

Don't be fretting about councillors/council on your night out.

Let yourself go wild and think about something else for a bit. :D
