Blackburn’s decision to ask the Government for a postponement

and it’s a cunt.

Phil Riley, the council’s Labour leader, previously said the council would “rather the money went on delivering services people want than on an election which would have to be repeated just a year later and on different ward boundaries”.
On the whole, its just another excuse (after excuse) saying that they don’t have the funds for a local election (that they will loose) partially because they are spending our money on the unwashed masses.
This is democracy? somehow I don’t think so.
Where as Lib Dem Cheltenham borough council said the decision to postpone its election was “the right one” ( due to lack of funding).
However, just a few months ago, it was revealed that the local authority had spent hundreds of thousands of pounds in taxpayer cash on gagging orders over two years, up to and including 2024/25.
A freedom of information response obtained last year revealed that £782,468 had been paid in association with 25 non-disclosure agreements signed by the council.
I think they could have afforded that election, and that’s a lot of hush money.
your thoughts please?

  1. In the kidney unit this morning….

    One one side of me, An old Paki with a loud phone.

    On the other side of me. Another old Paki with a loud phone.

    What makes me crease is when the staff finally – and meekly soft as shite – tell the human muck to turn the volume down, it is like it’s the very first time they’ve done it and it’s never happened before. How many times do these living pieces of shit need telling? They are ripping the piss, claiming they don’ understand the language.. And, as I attended my fellow patient and dear friend’s funeral last week, that loud, dirty, spitting. shitting, bog roll thieving perving peeping tom piece of Paki crap was in the ward on the same day, not giving a fuck and behaving as shitty as ever. This cunt’s comeuppance cannot come soon enough. I for one will revel in it. Bloody vermin.
