No surprise on any count.<br /><br />Once a community facility is closed it is very difficult if not impossible to get going again. Any decision as to the future of any such facility must bear that in mind and closure should only be considered as a very last resort, when all other options have been pursued and exhausted. To proceed to close such a facility for purely financial reasons with little or no effort expended to find alternatives is complete irresponsible. In particular when the sum concerned is relatively small and the Council is sitting on a small mountain of reserves. <br /><br />However, to close community facilities whilst at the same time handing over thousands of pounds of tax payer's money to a multi-millionaire should not only raise eyebrows but result in a thorough independent investigation. Anywhere else such a "donation" from the local authority to a local "entrepreneur" would be seen for what it is: corruption. And the responsible Councillors in question would be viewed with suspicion. What's in it for them we wonder? Soirees, as suggested by the title of this article, may only be the tip of the iceberg.<br /><br />As for "tosser-ness", perhaps with help.<br /><br /><br /><br />Lemonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1690720220183337557.post-51701328134299368782013-12-31T09:36:37.471+00:002013-12-31T09:36:37.471+00:00Being an MP does not make you "great".
