 Re: Return A&E to Burnley
Yes I do know that our Councillors are very poorly paid, Some worse than others, I have spoken to "my friends" from the BNP and they informed me that whilst they are on the lowest allowance it seems a lot of others are on a lot more, For instance the Executive, Which as far as I can make out is made up of LibDem councillors and enjoys a bit of "Jobs for the boys" culture, Even going as far as making up a job description for one of them, What is a "Yob Czar"? How many yobs has he had arrested? This is a pathetic publicity stunt throwing in a generous allowance.
Then we have the commities, All chaired by anybody other than a BNP councillor, More generous allowances.
But my friends also informed me that they are not there for the money, even though they admit the £5 a week rise they got helps they would gladly work for nothing if they could help people. Their allowances add up to less than Gordons last payrise, That is commitment.
I was at that council meeting when the budget was decided, I wish the rest of Burnley could have seen the greed in the eyes of the councillors who gained the most that night.  |
