Hi, thanks to all the readers and contributors to this website for your patience and the two messages of support during our strike-imposed “radio silence” during the last few weeks. Thanks to arbitration we have bowed to the outrageous demands of the council’s IT Department and will now allow them to “work” from home most of the week. So it’s now all systems go and we should be able to resume almost daily posts… Although the IT scum have said they won’t be rushing back to their computers whilst the current heatwave is on. Typical commy b****rds! Aashif Ackworth. New Mayor
