| Hazel, it would appear that you are in agreement to some of the proposed cuts, all councilor's which ever party you support have a duty and an accountability to use your power for the good of the community,for goodness sake it is a council you should not have whips to tell you how to vote it should be up to your conscience, why? if any of you were so disgruntled did you not take the result and your criticisms to the press. London Borough of Hounslow Councilors should have learnt from the fiasco of CIP's bankruptcy and fought tooth over nail over giving both our Libraries to Laing & Leisure Centers to Fusion at such a high cost to we the Tax Payer. As for the Computer System being replaced, when a computer break's it can normally be fixed by IT or if not an individual computer can be purchased to replace it, a large number of computer's require a database to store all information as a back-up. Databases depend upon the IT System that is used, I did ask what system was being used and what was the proposed replacement, but of course NO answer was forth coming, again why? do they need a new Telephone System NO answer is it possible that surplus funds require being used before March to enable our Government Grant to be forth coming. I do not suggest complete control taken away from council's only that our government should not give too much power to councils who generally make a mess of things and then take great delight in blaming this present government for the mess. I don't know about these Voluntary Organisations so I will not comment. I totally agree with you on Afghanistan we should never have stepped foot in there, that is a battle that will never be won purely because 95% of the Heroin in the World comes from there, our Men and Women in our Armed Forces are being killed on a daily basis. However we must not forget that Tony Blair with his lies and deceit frightened the House into voting for War on Iraq, do you not remember poor Dr Kelly who was murdered because he was going to tell the truth that there were no Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq, Mr Blair had already agreed with George Bush 1 year before the War on a trip to Mr Bush's ranch that he would bring the UK in to support him. All MP's are culpable for the decision to go into that war and our troop's died because Gordon Brown told lies about funding. Even now Tony Blair is still flitting around the Middle East as a Voluntary Envoy making a fortune out of it and costing us at least 2 Million Pounds a year for Police Protection. We should bring our troops home and concentrate on making our country great again. No money can ever ever replace the lives of our young men and women who lost their lives or the sadness brought about by these tragedies for their families. |
