Truly, fantastic, one might think. But, how many of the daily hits are from the Hornets' Nest itself? The question is: Although perhaps read by those at the Nest, do they actually taker any notice, of what they may consider to be rants of a geriatric Dame and her followers? I hope not... Other Boroughs should have a similar outlet to oversee the shenanigans going on at their "Nest"...
Hornets Nest is a fantastic initiative, and it would be wonderful to see similar initiatives rolled out country-wide. Right now, nobody oversees council behaviour, and council officers are not accountable to anybody. The Ombudsman is run by former council workers, and the Standards Board which was supposed to oversee council conduct was abolished in 2012. Private Eye's Rotten Boroughs column highlights some of the most egregious behaviour nationwide, but a Hornets Nest equivalent in every borough would be a great asset in this current vacuum of council accountability in which council officers (and many councillors) do as they please with impunity.

ReplyDeleteTruly delighted! Anything in particular you attribute this stardom to - especially the sudden leap recently?
