I see Cllr Taylor was singing the same monotonous tune last week; you know the one, Tax cuts for the rich whilst imposing cuts on the people who can least afford it!
A fine example of Labour’s politics of envy and spite, which history tells us never benefits the poor; it just drags everyone down and they then call it equality!
Please, John, remind us of some of your great achievements, I seem to have forgotten them somehow!
Oh, hang on; wasn’t there the scandal regarding wasting
taxpayers' money on their £36,000 virtual town hall.?
·
And the iPhone application at a cost of £5,731
to the taxpayer – an application that only managed a paltry couple of hundred
calls?
·
Latterly, the council introduced their controversial
'cashless parking' system in Ashton town centre, which had to be 'suspended'
following a backlash from shoppers and traders, who claimed it was killing
business! It’s now been scrapped for good – but will have cost the council £28.000 of taxpayers’ money.
That's nearly £70,000 wasted! Spent on annual maintenance, that could have saved the Stamford Park Conservatory!
There have been many more examples of waste over the last few years. Perhaps our readers could sight a good few of their own?
I feel sure that some of Tameside council’s councillors think that we; the 'little people' are all unsophisticated knuckle draggers, with short memory spans; unable to comprehend anything more advanced than 'Janet & John'… but we're not!
So, I’m sorry to ruin the Cllr Taylor’s narrative by dragging facts of reality into it but, he really should cease his continuing belief in what he sees as our gullibility.
