What I was referring to was that we would not be taking a decision based solely on those assembled in the hall that evening, a fraction of the population of the village as a whole.” The Princes Foundation said it aimed to plan for Longniddry’s sustainable future “while retaining the unique appeal and character its residents cherish”.<br /><br />Rock is fond of letting the truth slip and then trying to cover it up afterwards. It wasn't so long ago he referred to the north of the borough as a "dung heap" during a Council meeting.<br /><br />But this is all hardly surprising. One of his colleagues suggested bulldozing all the social housing in St. Charles Ward after the 2010 election (during which Rock lost hist seat). <br /><br />Give this lot enough rope and they do eventually hang themselves.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1690720220183337557.post-21300515426313829802013-11-18T23:16:24.540+00:002013-11-18T23:16:24.540+00:00A reply from Rock to my emails.

Only a few days ago I watched the hopeless Rev Paul Flowers (ex Chairman of the Co Op Bank) giving evidence to the Public Accounts Committee of the House Of Commons. I kept thinking that this was not only an accident that had already happened but clearly another was on the way. No surprise then to read the stories in the weekend press. Cracking!
