It isn't difficult to understand why this shower would vote for it, afterall it comes from the backward and barbaric cult they follow, but why would the remaining 18 Labour councillors vote for this?!


  We are all familiar with arse kissers like Mike Barnes, without the muslim vote he wouldn't be in the Civic Centre, But Alan Rigby voted for feeding our kids tortured meat, and he's supposed to be a bloody Christian!


  The only people that voted against this disgusting appeasement were the 5 BNP councillors, and 3 community voice councillors. Terry Follows voted in favour of it too, though this isn't the only occasion upon which he's favoured the muslims, is it Terry?

This is disgusting, and I think these useless bloody councillors should be made to explain why they would do something so anti-English as this. If you are unfortunate enough to be represented by one of these sellout backstabbers, be sure to find out why they voted against the English. This time it's food, next time, who knows what they will betray us on.

No need to close Tunstall pool.

                                             Now it's targeted for closure, will this be sold off 

                                                               to the highest bidder?

 Just back from a peaceful demonstration outside Tunstall swimming pool, where 40 or so people had gathered to fight the closure of this important community amenity, yet despite rhetoric to the opposite, not one of Tunstalls three councillors could be bothered to show up, neither could the Labour communist MP, Joan Whalley.

                                                           Another Labour no show.
                    Clearly not too concerned with the potential loss of another city swimming pool.
                                                  

 I spoke to numerous people while there, one of whom took me inside the building to view the swimming pool and then ask me where the £360,000's worth of repairs were. This is a very good point, and it highlights a well known council tactic of  exaggerating the costs of repairs/upkeep in order for them to push through closures, though the qwuestion should be asked, which of the useless council officers is going to be fired for allowing the maintainence of the swimming pool to slip so far behind its schedule?

  The answer to that is of course, none. No-one will be sacked, in fact, they will probably get a promotion for helping the city council to once again do what it wants to, irrespective of what the people want.

  But whilst we're on the subject of the councils duty to the people of this city, why are they claiming to be closing this pool for savings when they have general fund cash reserves of over £41 million in the DMO?

Even if the cost of repairs to Tunstall swimming pool were £350,000- and they're not, £150,000 at most- surely with cash reserves of £41 million the money for repairs could be found? If it was a senior officer leaving the city council, you can bet your arse they'd find the £100,000+ for a golden goodbye, yet the people of the city don't rate the repairs to a much used local amenity.

  I'm told that Cllr Megan Ryan already has it on her website that Tunstall pool will close in March, and that the so called leader of our council, Pervez, is blaming the coalition cuts for this closure, when it is a well known fact that the closure of Tunstall pool has been on the agenda for well over 12 months now.

  Some of the senior officers and councillors are a bunch of liars, determined to paint a picture of the finances that differs greatly from the facts, and the only way the people of this city will get the services they deserve, will be to change the faces that represent them in the council chamber from the third rate crap they've got now, to people who have a genuine affection for this city and its people, and by not doing this, you will seal a future for this city of the removal of more and more services, yet the chargeas to you will rise and rise.

 If you decide to vote for the same old faces, don't say you weren't warned.

The council's biggest problem is disunity.

  I've had a look at the past achievements of this city council, and the problems that lead to nothing happening back then was the fact that they were all Labour councillors, whereas the fractious nature of local politics today, means that there are too many factions.

  It's a fact that the city councillors have for decades, been a disappointment in their failure to guide the city back to economic success, having sat back and done nothing as the industries that were the lifesblood of this region were taken from us by the laissez faire politics of both the Tories and Labour, seeing our skills and jobs decimated by cheap imports. How can the industries of the first world countries like Britain compete with those of the likes of China, where labourers and workers are paid 50p and a bowl of rice a day?

  Our city councillors should have been pushing for a certain amount of protectionism from third world countries that rode roughshod over basic human rights, in order to protect their constituents from the unfair advantage these countries had, but instead of standing up for their voters, these bloody marxists forewent the rights of the British workers, preferring instead to replace them with third world immigrants.

  And apart from bits and bobs, a park here, getting the litter picked up there, what have the city councillors honestly achieved?

  The time has come to replace these same old faces that get in at every election and then achieve nothing of note, and this has to happen because the way the city council operates has to change as well. It is clear that the way they do things now simply isn't working, it's just wasting huge amounts of money, so we need to change the very fundamentals that the city council is built on.

   One of the perennial problems faced by the people of Stoke-on-Trent is the underhandedness of the Labour group within the city council, and if this city is to be turned into an economic success, then these old school, pocket lining communists have to go, so those of us with genuine affection for this city can implement the policies that will help it back to its feet.

  Over the next few weeks, we'll publish policy ideas on as many areas of council control as we can, and we'll show you that there is a better way to run this city, a more efficient and successful way that uses your money to its maximum benefit.

   Please pass this on to friends, family, or acquaintances, we don't have long but we need to get the message out that another round of Labour third raters will kill this city off for good. If you have any questions, or would like to hear our ideas on a particular council service, drop us a line at the following address.
