The Town Clerk 'avin A Larf....

 left: A sheepish looking Cllr Palmer



This extract from Mr Myers's(Town Clerk) Report on Tri Borough arrangements referred snidely to Cllr Palmer's 'procurement passion'.
Obviously Mr Myers made this statement knowing that upcoming was the disaster that is Chelsea Care. It is good that our Town Clerk can inject some humour and irony into his reports !

The Extract

8.  

 

Councillor Palmer is passionate about the need for better procurement...... and ......  It’s an area where scrutiny committees will be able to continue to keep council officers on their toes!!!!

  
Palmers'passions and prowess' have 'procured' a loss of over  £1 million for the fiasco that is Chelsea Care sanctioned by him as a 'good use of taxpayer money'. The Dame cannot abide the vulgar 'Lord' Sugar but he was dead right in pointing out the uselessness of Cllr Palmer (aka Up Yours)

as one 'insider' recently commented in the Hornet....

"The project was doomed to failure long before Cllr. Palmer assumed responsibility for scrutinising it. However, he insisted it was viable and then delayed producing his report because he could not find anyone to blame for the fiasco other than his Beloved Leader."
