Unscrupulou...Is'nt the S106 racket marvellous ?<br />Unscrupulous developers are allowed to get their wicked way as long as they deposit a huge wodge of wonga (blood money) at council HQ to compensate local residents affected by their projects.<br />A splendid gesture in theory, but what if the affected residents are not made aware of this 'gift' for years, or at all ?<br />Would it have been earning interest and if so, to whose benefit ?<br />Similarly, if it is not claimed and spent within a certain time limit, is it not simply returned to the donor ?Fly on the wall/Fly in the ointment ?noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837262994617763803.post-59995962979879894332010-03-23T10:10:37.057+00:002010-03-23T10:10:37.057+00:00Caroline

In fact the ICG is probably the biggest obstacle to stock transfer as both the Conservatives and Labour at national level seem to have it somewhere on their agendas.<br /><br />It is the nature of the beast I'm afraid and they'll only get worse as the campaign draws on and the nature of their predicament becomes more obvious to even the dullest dullard amongst their number.<br /><br />I believe they had a couple of 10-year-olds handing out their leaflets this weekend. I'll bet the minimum wage that they herald as one of their achievements didn't apply on that day.Phil Andrewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07980051462920249189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837262994617763803.post-27138727935710132362010-03-23T09:30:02.588+00:002010-03-23T09:30:02.588+00:00Labour were on our estate (Worton) telling people ...Labour were on our estate (Worton) telling people the section 106 money will be lost unless the ICG are defeated and they elected instead, bare face liars no change there then.Carolinenoreply@blogger.com
