Celebrate! Our Rotten Borough has reason for civic pride!
Mr Myers, has 'come out' as London's Top Local Government' tycoon...
The Standards' words not the Dame. But they got it wrong... the true cost of Myers is closer....with his pension, bonus and bits and bobs, to £300,000 a year
The good news is that the new guy's salary will be reduced to reflect new market levels.
What the hell are they talking about? There is no 'market' for local government Chief Executives...the greedy buggers get what they can.
Outside local government they would be unemployable...
MYERS....BIG FAT CAT |
I would like to see a job description for a Town Hall Chief Executive. It would be interesting to see what they actually DO.
ReplyDeleteNo wonder why council tax is so high; an absolute liberty. There are far too many tiers of government in this country and it is stifling the recovery process. In days gone by; public servants were paid significantly less than their counterparts in the private sector but it has got completely out of control. In RBK&C we could get by with maybe around 20 councillors without it making a jot of difference to the way the borough is run. However it takes a brave and upstanding man to do the right thing; I just hope that Nick is that right man. He needs to get the right team around him; people who care and are appointed on merit alone and definately no cronies. No Moylan, no Rock and definately no Quentin!
ReplyDeleteThe House that Cockell built
ReplyDeleteI see that it doesn't really matter which political party is in power. There are at least four Conservative Councils on that list.
ReplyDeleteThe trough is clearly equally full and available whatever party is running the place.
