To me this is a blatent case of sexism. Why should we only be concerned about Transvestite con artists, especially ones who, according to the story, have been arrested?
Isn't it about time that they issued a warning about the 37 people masquerading as Conservative Councillors in Barnet Town Hall. This mob got elected by pretending to be Tories but have done many things at odds with their own parties policies :-
Upped their own allowances, despite criticism from Tory Government minister Grant Shapps
Refused to publish details of gifts and other jollies against Tory party policy on transparancy
Continued to recruit expensive council senior employees when the government has urged a freeze
Embarked on a bonkers program of quango creation when the Government has recommended cutting them
Raising stealth taxes such as parking fees
Here's a few other things that they didn't tell you in their manifesto which they've been planning since the election barely six months ago :-
Closing down the Arts Depot
Closing and selling off the Boroughs Libraries
Closing and selling off the Boroughs Museums
Closing and selling off the Boroughs Morgues
Making certain types of household rubbish collection fortnightly
No neighbourhood skip service
30% reduction in Sure Start Centres
Oh and then there's my favourite whopper of the lot. At the election they pretended that the Mill Hill Lib Dems were planning a 500 seat football stadium at Copthall. What they didn't tell you was that they were planning a 10,000 seat Rugby Stadium !!!!
Here's the proof - John Hart in March, railing against the Kentish Town stand for 50 people :-

Yet not a peep when this story hit the news stands. In fact Tory MP Matthew Offord is on record as saying it's a splended scheme.

So why is it that only Transvestite con artists are singled out? Transvestophobia if you ask me.
Brilliant - I suggest you send this as a "Letter" to the Hendon Times because they should publish this if they believe in free speech.
ReplyDeleteKeep highlighting these things. I wanted Barnet FC To get Copthall.
Surely a Ground Share with Saracens and Barnet FC would be the best way to develop a proper stadium ( and dig an underground car park for 2,000 cars - so it does not impact on the area and improve the routes off the site onto the A1/A41 so that locals dont even notice the traffic - which is very possible.
With 3 - 5K people coming into the area each week for matches it will boost the local economy which is a really good thing.
I'm afraid I disagree with BB. I can't see BB's '2000 underground car park spaces' and 'improving the routes on to the A1/A41' as being part of any reasonable transport policy, I'm afraid.
ReplyDeleteBut my main carp, Roger, is over your criticism of the fortnightly waste collections. We cannot just keep taking stuff out of the ground, using it, and dumping the rubbish afterwards. So even this shower of untalented spivs might be on to something, if it is based around recycling and better disposal.
Ooh, I've come over all environmental today.
Baarnet,
ReplyDeleteThe point isn't whether you agree or not, the point is that they kept it all quiet
Ah, Sorry, Roger. Yes, they are not only untalented spivs, but they are unwilling to argue their case, even when (I personally think) they may have one.
ReplyDeleteIn fact, only the stupid ones seem to raise their head above the parapet - and then spout absolute rubbish. Which brings us full circle to Robert Rams and his "Ditch the Books" nonsense.
