This stupid bloody council!

                                     The face of waste and gross incompetence at the city council.

 


Take a look at the grinning face of incompetence, incompetence that is costing you taxpayers millions of your hardearned pounds every year, and the more these morons spend, the less we citizens get!

There have been several recent reports from the city council as to how they are making changes to save money in order to meet their financial obligations, but the basis of their ideas, the fundamental principles which they apply, are criminally flawed, the mistakes they're making could be highlighted by a first year college student!

  In order to raise revenues, the idiots at the city council have decided to put up prices to public venues such as swimming baths, increase or introduce car parking charges at public venues, and now, some complete retard at the city council has decided that the public should be charged for parking at local parks that have their own car parks!!

  Who the hell is coming up with ideas like these?
 
Why are the city councillors still allowing these moronic senior officers to make and implement policy when it is crystal clear they are totally incapable of doing so with any fiscal responsibility?
 
Why are the officers of the city council making these decisions, when the city councillors are elected for this very reason?

What the bloody hell are our councillors playing at? If they do not want to do the job they were elected to do, they should quit, and make way for people that are prepared to do the job!

  When times are financiaqlly tough, as they are now, the last thing you do is increase the tax burden!

Here's what you do. You lower, or cut completely, car park charges, in order to encourage people to use the public facilities or use the town and city centres. By lowering costs you stimulate growth, so by raising costs, you do exactly the opposite, you suppress growth.

  The city council should be lowering business rates for all local businesses, doing what they can for the business community to stop from closing or making redundancies.

  The council officers should be listening to good ideas for saving money, such as running the council fleet on recycled veggie oil. The council diesel bill will hit £1.1 million this year, just on diesel! They could create a handful of jobs, buy in the plant to convert the used oil into fuel, for less than £200,000!, yet still they refuse to acknowledge the vast savings to be made by doing this!

  Instead, what we get are stupid, ill thought out ideas the likes of which this city council always come up with, well here's another money saving idea for them, of the £18.9 million spent on salaries for those earning £50k or more, half it. 5 years ago there were 90 people in this pay bracket, now, there are 269!!
The costs of this have gone from £5.1 million five years ago, to £18.9 million in 2010.

 And remember, these are the same people that have ripped you off for millions with deals done behind closed doors, crooked contract deals, lies and misinformation on what monies they hold and where they are spent, plus the endless waste of millions of pounds through inefficiency and incompetence.

  Come the May elections, vote out the same old faces that get in and then do bugger all apart from line their pockets, vote out the LibLabCon with their lies and gerrymandering, and Common Purpose mates, change who represents you, and let's take this city back from those who are hear for the money, but who have no loyalty to this city and her people.

DO OR DIE!

  First off, England First Party wish you the very best for the coming year, and hope you've all had an excellent festive time.

  Right, now to work.
In just over four months time, local elections will be here in Stoke-on-Trent again, we still don't know whether they will be for four years, or if the current system will stay and only 20 seats will be up for grabs, either way, the pisspoor performance of both city council officers and far too many of the city councillors have left this city in an atrocious mess.

   The time has come for you voters to stop buggering about, get off your backsides, and vote out this gaggle of turkeys that time after time implemented policies and decisions that have damaged this city.

FINANCE!

£60 million returned because the Regen Partnership were too slow to spend it, yet half of Stoke-on-Trent has been demolished by these same morons!

  £93 million in cash has been whittled down to £32 million, but the council refuse to answer any questions as to what's left of this sum, how long the investment is for, how much interest it has earned, or when will this money be returned to the city.

Deliberately breaking planning law by confiscating S106 money from the projects it was meant for, into a single bank account so the city council could cream off the interest

  Criminal conduct in the awarding of contracts to companies that charge 3 to 4 times the going rate! 6 suspended council officers, one arrested and charged with contractual fraud and theft.

  This is the third fraud squad investigation into the city council, starting with Mohammed Pervezs' attempts to get Dimensions closed and sold off to his muslim business buddy, the very iffy Mo Choudary, followed by an investigation into wildly differing amounts in grants and donations, but all the figures coming from the city council!!
   Now, we have the awarding of contracts being looked into, let's hope the police take a close look at some of the big contracts issued, like £400 million to Kier, £115 million for streetlighting, and however much the city council are giving to Biffa for refuse collecting.

  Upwards of £7 million on asylum seekers here in the city!

   The loss of £5 million through either laziness or incompetence of the finance department with the failure to read an e-mail that warned of the imminent collapse of Landsbanki.

  The outrageous fact that the pay bracket of £50k or more has nearly quadrupled in 5 years!!
£5.1 million in 04/05, to a massive and obscene £18.9 million in 09/10.
The greed of the senior officers on the city council knows no bounds, and there seems to be very little these people won't do to line their own pockets with public money!

  The secretive closure of the North Staffs Race Equality Council in January 2009, left millions of pounds of public money unaccounted for, yet the city council and the local police refused to do anything about it, or answer any questions on the subject. There is up to £4 million unaccounted for.

  This particular area of council mismanagement is flooded with examples like these, yet time after time the same faces, the same corrupt parties get voted back in, and this only happens because far too many that are eligible to vote, don't, and it's not bloody good enough!
If you know someone that isn't registered, or that simply can't be arsed to get up and vote, give them a slap round the neck and inform them that it's their fault the city is in the mess it is!

  ALL IT TAKES TO CHANGE THE SYSTEM IS FOR PEOPLE TO VOTE!!
