There are excellent, hard-working Conservative councillors...Will, Cyron, Freeman, McVeigh, Thalassites, Taylor-Smith all spring to mind.
Then there is Cllr Faulks. Faulks is the odd one out.
Her portfolio of Economy, Employment and Innovation is a vital one yet, surprisingly, the lady has no real business experience-apart from helping the super-rich to home in on multi-million pound homes.
Bright ideas and Lady Faulks are poor bedfellows. This is 'Dave' Fletcher.
The 'likely lad's' 'pitch' was that he would provide desks and 'mentoring' to renters.
Dave and Cllr Faulks have one thing in common...they are clueless about business or innovation!
Still, looking at The Workary's CIC accounts Dave managed to extract close to £80,000 a year plus profit share so he was on the ball when it came to looking after 'Dave'.
When Downes realised he was being put out of business through Faulks's folly the Council rapidly cancelled the contract.
Sadly, the years of having to compete with a favoured supplier practically closed his business.
He has now escalated his complaint to the Local Government Ombudsman.
But the moral of the story is this....Cllr Faulks is a danger to local business.
No wonder eyes roll when the name of Cllr Faulks is mentioned.
High time that Lady False is sent out to pasture. She is a liability on the Council benches and her actions prove this.
ReplyDeleteCllr Faulks is a close friend of dizzy and is therefore safe. She can do anything that takes her fancy
DeleteMaybe dizzy needs to be put out to grass too
DeleteThe stories keep coming. The incompetence of Cllr Faulks. She seems to lack political and business judgement. What is the point of this person?
ReplyDeleteFaulks is unfit to be a councillor. In fact she’s unfit to take any part in public life.
ReplyDeleteThe woman repeatedly exhibits a toxic mix of incompetence and arrogance.
Residents are well advised to vote to remove this menace to all our K & C communities.
Colonel John Downes was a friend of Cromwell who signed Charles 1'death warant and then asked Charles 2 for his job back.Talk about optimism
ReplyDeleteWhy do you keep on repeating this stupid remark? What an ancestor did 370 years ago has absolutely no bearing on the character of someone today.
DeletePalmer has been regurgitating this rubbish for years
DeleteROFL Looks like "Justin" has been at the sour grapes. More proof if it were needed of how this "blog" has descended to the gutter in recent years. On the other hand, you can tell who the good guys are by seeing who gets attacked on here. It's like that octopus that predicts the world cup. A very handy barometer. Dame you are so painfully transparent you are practically see-through!
ReplyDeleteAh, poor little 14:32....why don't you find something else to read instead of boring us all with your tedious 'world cup' analogies. Th every fact you lurk here is a testament to the power of this blog. Now and play with yoiur football, there's a good boy, Matthew.
DeleteAbout to be ex Cllr Matthew Palmer? How does it feel not having your allowance? Life will get tough as you are really unemployable
DeleteHe is right though, isn't he. This website has become extremely informative, although perhaps not in the way that the Dame and her handlers intended. I hear the Kool Aid is tasty too. You can pinpoint almost to the day that the Dame began to drink it.
Delete00:16 oh...the 'sarcasm' is just so tediously heavy with its 'Kool Aid' allusion. Please don't post late at night after drinking too much rough cider...so embarrassing.
DeleteKool Aid? Be original boy
DeleteIt's true though isnt it. Justin eating sour grapes and Dame has nailed her pantaloons to the mast, with all that that implies. About as subtle as a Brexit campaign. Name-calling anyone who's noticed doesn't change it.
Delete21:00? you sound embarrassed....go and play outside. The weather is gorgeous. Don't forget to tell mummy you have gone to play, though
