WHEN Reform shocked the political establishment by sweeping to victory in a whole bunch of county council elections in May, it looked like change was on the way.
Welcome change, frankly.
For too long our have been squandering money. And virtue-signalling their support for a whole bunch of questionable causes.
and the new council leaders promised it was all going to be different. And in Kent and Durham and Lincolnshire and Warwickshire, Reform set out its plans.
What it hadn’t banked on, though, was the opposition from within county hall.
From the pampered, overpaid council officials, who seem prepared to do whatever they can to thwart its ambitions.
And so when the young leader of Warwickshire County Council told the chief executive of the council to remove the flag from the top of the building, this is what Monica Fogarty replied: “I am afraid I will not be taking the action that you are requesting.”;
Incredible, isn’t it? The job of the chief executive is to ensure that the wishes of the leading group — and thus the ratepayers — are respected.
Not to refuse point-blank a simple and very sensible order. Fogarty earns £200,000 a year. She is a puffed-up, arrogant and brain-dead insult to the people of Warwickshire. A smug, smirking hypocrite who should be sacked right now.
A hypocrite because while she will claim to be beholden to democracy, she refuses to take action on anything with which she disagrees politically.
She is a disgrace to local government.
As put it: “These people are drunk on their own power, and for decades have been totally unaccountable.
Brazen contempt for law
“Until now — Reform elected officials are fighting back. Unlike the two old parties, Reform will fight for you.”;
Fogarty is part of the “kinder, gentler”; Left — the people who despise democracy when it doesn’t go their way.
And she is typical of so many of our public servants. All of them sucking like billy-o on the public tit.
All of them are determined to enforce THEIR politics on the rest of us.
Such as the NHS trusts up and down the country which are still refusing to abide by last year that for legal purposes there is a biological difference between men and women.
For legal purposes and indeed all other purposes, I should add.
But female nurses are still being forced to share their private spaces with blokes in skirts. It is outrageous that this brazen contempt for the law has not been punished.
And then there are our civil servants. They’re probably quite happy right now, helping the Labour government destroy what little is left of our economy and bankrupting the country.
Because they couldn’t wait to get rid of the Tories. They hindered them at every juncture. And conducted foul personal campaigns against the most radical and commendable ministers, such as
The lesson is that we need a thorough overhaul of public sector working practices — and a judicious bit of weeding.
Get rid of the superannuated numbskulls if they will not do the bidding of the freely elected MPs and councillors.
Sack them if they refuse to follow the law of the land.
And begin this process tomorrow, 09:00, with the sacking of the odious Monica Fogarty.
Bank on it – woke idiots not persons of note
THE woke is considering ditching from £5 notes. So that somebody more diverse can have their mug on the fiver. I wonder who these idiots will choose?
Here’s my selection of likely candidates.
Miriam Margolyes – the smug fat actress who is always screeching about Palestine.
Bob Vylan – the talented and tuneful rappers.
– well, she’s every- where else, so why not on our money?
Kehinde Andrews – the radical black lecturer at a former poly who is forever saying how awful white folks are.
– no dwarves are represented on any bank note at the moment.
And I like ol’ Warwick. ?
It will all end in tiers
IT is sometimes said that we live in a two-tier society. Some people get away with stuff, others do not. To tell you the truth, I don’t like the phrase.
I sometimes think people only use it because “tier”; rhymes with “Keir”;, so they can say “Two-Tier Keir!”;
But is it true? Of course it is. Let me give you a minor example.
An artist called Victoria Culf was seemingly banned from her own show in Watford, because a council employee said she had gender critical views (and then apparently lied that the police were investigating her).
So because Ms Culf thinks that transitioning is dangerous for children, she doesn’t get to attend her own exhibition.
Meanwhile, the BBC and are perfectly happy to put on stage left-wing acts who call for Jews to be killed.
Or in the case of Kneecap, MPs to be killed. Two tier.
Here’s another one. The BBC was delighted to run a fawning documentary about a woman who went to prison for organising a protest. But it would not dream of taking the same approach to Lucy Connolly, banged up for saying nasty things about refugees. Two tier.
SO, who is going to pay for everything? Sir Keir Starmer’s pathetic climbdown to the rebels means the UK is heading for bankruptcy quicker than ever.
We simply cannot afford our rapidly increasing benefits bills. And the stupid Labour Left don’t have the answer either.
Shoving more taxes on the rich will LOSE more money than it brings in. Because rich people are already deserting the country like fleas hopping off a dead dog.
is right. What was once a safety net has become a trap.
