Graham, I have no reason(or desire) to distrust you but we have to consider alternatives, could you have been mis informed????
That is what I was getting at, Graham gave the info he did, and just a short while later the release in the telegraph, with Britcliffe commenting on it.... :confused: Somebody feeding porkie pies then?

Of course, we all know that the perfect location for most folks is nimby:rolleyes:;)

you havent seen the british junkies then .the best place for them is a wooden box to put them out of their misery and make our streets safer for our children to walk...we are to soft in this country ,we have tried the softly softly and it is leading to plain and simple anarchy.this country has no future except abyss unless we restore law and order now its time for the silent majority to rise and get off our backsides and do something...

Mmm

papers, has anyone thought of challanging their info based on Grahams post?

Graham, I have no reason(or desire) to distrust you but we have to consider alternatives, could you have been mis informed????

don't know, this is the most scary, the fact that they still don't want us to know says they know its a real issue and ultimately a vote loser in whatever ward it lands........

All 3 sites are Barnfield.

I still don't think it is the Health Centre BUT Dave Watkinson is a good journo.

The PCT wrote to me and said (shorthand version) "No more balls ups by the Council, We won't get involved in any site unless The Council, starting with the Leader & Opposition Leader (myself) have agreed to move forward on it."

I know I was briefed about the ex-Council Offices comprehensively, so was Peter Britcliffe, and Labour Councillors were told THAT was the preferred site.

I have had NO correspondence since and spoke with the MD on Friday. He said nothing new. That's the situation from my end.

I'll ask this morning.

2 simple straight forward answers, "simples" as Alexsandr Orlov would say!

Lindsay they weren't an answer to a political question, only about twittering:D

The first I heard about the health centre being used was when I read it on the Telegraph website today. Graham and I were briefed that that the PCT didn't want to use the health centres because of the communal waiting rooms, we were told that they would use the old council offices because they would only be used for offices and solely for the drugs and alcohol centre. I've never lied or misled anyone on this forum and never would, neither I believe, would Graham. We only pass on the information that has been given to us in briefings. I actually saw the letter that Peter and Graham signed stating that we had no objection, subject to planning permission being granted for the change of use, to that site being used.

Peter and Graham, mentioned in the same sentence, now there's a novelty, bet they weren't in the same room when they signed it though:rolleyes:

What a shame they can't work together instead of against each other.

I blame them both for that.

Re: Secret location for drug and alcohol centre
 
I know that you probably expect me to say this but Graham is not the one to blame for this, Peter will not speak to me either. In the last month I have tried to speak to him on a few occasions to sort various issues out but he refuses to speak to either of us. I certainly won't stop trying because I think its vital that communication between members is civil and productive, whatever you think I don't actually hate Peter, I don't agree with him on lots of things and our politics are vastly different but in the past he has helped me with personal issues that I've had and he genuinely can be a lovely person, we just don't see enough of that side of his personality. In fact we don't see that at all now and its a shame
