These are the same people who have filled their troughs with planning permissions and perks, volvo cars, caravan sites, extensions to properties all perks that they abused yet denied their neighbour, and their neighbour is their brother, the person who voted for them as a fool, and then was betrayed.<br /><br />And what have we done about it? Nothing, all complaint are ignored, all accusations are hidden and covered up. We must learn to concentrate on the wrongs and make them right, that is why we all get angry, we have all been wronged, and yet not one Councillor cares enough to be counted. This why they are unwilling to divulge, they are all up to their snouts in the trough of greed and power.<br /><br />Huw TerryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6130000348899973408.post-91934755379826461072010-06-11T23:08:49.547+01:002010-06-11T23:08:49.547+01:0022.11 and all readers
