We could even put the accountant forward as the peoples representetive and make him sign an agreement not to make a move without a public vote on the matter.
Has anyone seen tonights Telegraph?
Even the Mayor of Burnley has been kicking off because her rubbish hasn't been taken away for three weeks. The man in charge of waste collections has issued an apology and promised it won't happen again. As mentioned earlier, they're blaming the entire screw up on the days that the bank holidays fall, which I don't really understand. When I ask my boss if I can have any bank holiday off, he says "Does this look like a bank?" Refuse collectors don't work for a bank so why do they get a bank holiday?
