“I’ve got a good working relationship with the leader of the City Council and the chairman of the police authority so I’m confident we’ll sort it out very amiably”

So good a relationship, and so amiably, that an independent arbitrator is being brought in at a cost of several thousand pounds to taxpayers, to decide how to ‘splash the cash’. The constant hogwash which emanates from these people makes a person wonder how anyone can be so mentally challenged as to actually vote for them when the elections come round. Unfortunately, there is no cure for such a terminal decline and the same drones will put their respective thumbprints in the same boxes the next time that they are encouraged to do so.

This never affects those dullards, it affects the rest of us who don’t know what to do to force the changes needed. The politicians must laugh their collective socks off, all the way to the bank. Dangle the carrots, open the gates, watch the piggies leave big brother and co., just long enough to vote the rest of us another period of misery, with more doom and gloom for the city.

Changes must come, this old part politics bandwagon cannot be allowed to carry on rolling over and crushing us indefinitely. Central government is directly responsible for the rise in an unending list of social ills; poverty, drug abuse, illegal immigration, asylum seekers, muggings, vandalism, inflation and soaring property prices, combined with a breakdown in public transport, policing, hospital and public health services, poor quality broadcasting and open season to profiteers and plunderers from all over the world, including giant casino conglomerates.

These strangleholds on the economy and the people are completed by the phasing out and selling off of every British native and home-grown skill in existence, whatever it may be, but personified by selling British vehicle production out to Europe, Russia, America and China, whilst importing cheap labour from Eastern Europe and elsewhere to further blacken the plight of the native population worst affected by it.

Most of the time these immigrants are housed, fed, clothed and nursed by the state at the cost of the taxpayer, whilst at the same time being employed by companies and individuals who pay less than the minimum wage, thus not only exploiting the immigrant, who is not to blame, but feeding like parasites off the over laden backs of the ordinary taxpayer.

Local Authorities such as Derby City, and Derbyshire County Councils are equally responsible for administering the City and the County for central government, and instead of starving these policies often nurture them, blindly carrying out government edicts as if carrying an Olympic torch. However, this should be balanced by good housekeeping and a sensible approach, local needs must be paramount.

We don’t need (nor should we tolerate) local politicians who carry out policies which central government states they must implement, where they are at odds with what is right for the community in their area. Such specimens must be ousted at the first opportunity, hounded out if necessary, and independents installed in their place straight away.

Only by such radical surgery will we prevent the kind of lamentable situation outlined by this latest (known about) fiasco, the unedifying site of a council which is responsible for the biggest corporate mess in the history of this city, the loss and decline of public buildings and estate on an industrial scale, and, above all, a smugness which one might only otherwise encounter in naughty little boys, from continuing to wreck this once orderly and civilised place.
