gdj Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 Maybe loyalty to the two Conservative MPs outweighs concern for public services. Just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gdj Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 Maybe they thought that signing a petition is always just pretty pointless? Leaving aside the fact that it's a letter, not a petition, our council `leader' has lost any right to wring his hands and blame central govt cuts for the mess that this county is in. He has had the opportunity to join other council leaders in objecting to those cuts and trying to defend services and has chosen not to. To misquote the good book: "Whoever is not against the cuts is for them". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
