The heading for this post is not made lightly! I truly believe that it is time for some radical changes in this clowncil. For far too long, this community has been satisfied with less that full representation by its elected councillors. They stand on their record and it is far from impressive. Community views have been ignored time and time again. If one bothers to read the variety of submissions made on 'consultation', 'community plans', 'budgets', 'domestic animal management policy', 'pavilions', 'swimming pools', etc. etc. etc. then it becomes plainly obvious that almost nothing that people have bothered to suggest, comment upon, and plan for, have ended up as official clowncil policy. The question is why. Why has this bunch of councillors steadfastly refused to listen to what the community wants? Why haven't they had the courage to vote against what the administration puts forward? Why haven't they done their jobs properly? The time for excuses and self promotion that we find on all their flyers is far from the reality and voters should be aware of this.
My conclusion is that we need new blood. Hence I strongly advocate that the following candidates receive careful consideration.
Camden - blight, Gisbson, Forge
Rosstown - Pilling, Dunstan
Tucker - Magee, Lobo, Hyams
