CORRUPTION That just is ONE of the reasons there ARE others, but I suppose there all interlinked......... not exactly Wikileaks..... its been predominatly missmanaged and HAD abuse of power for DECADES.

I just wonder as to how far the corruption has spread?

In my opinion the CPS need to give their "heeds a shake".

Bit more.........

I wasn't on WDC at the time this happened so it is news to me, but it doesn't surprise me. I'll be following any action by NCC with interest.

In general it is depressing that the CPS are not actively trying to enforce the law. They seem to be relying on councillors to hold senior officers to account, and while that might seem reasonable what can the public do if the councillors fail to do that?

There are certainly mixed messages coming across with this stuff. To me it now looks like if NCC are successful in their civil case the CPS have been at least negligent if not incompetent? Its got to be in the public interest to prove this one way or the other!

The whole thing stinks to the high heavens. I would not be surprised if they got away with it completely, or it takes so long to deal with , it would just fizzle out. Like I have said before if it was me I would get clattered cos if I so much as farted in a clean air zone I would get nicked for it.

It was run as a "do as I say cooncil" and "not a do as I do" .............and its been proven

I just hope its not wheels within wheels and the thieving buggers get off with it.

Its no different than someone coming in to YOUR house and thieving money from you......... would they get off with it if caught? I think not.

One law for them and another for us always has been and always will be :dribble:

It's worse than that - at least a burglar doesn't come back for more every year, but the people involved here will get that extra money in their pensions for years to come.

One bites the dust, can't help thinking the guy is being hung out to dry as a scapegoat.

Shusssssssssssh OUR local M.P has given us his New Year Message in the N.P.L and how inspirational it is (NOT).

Well I,m all for democracy however how this pillock got in well its beyond me, typical bloody Labour nowts their fault he condems the new Government over their policies for the BIG cuts in local government he seems to forget that HIS lot in the old Wansbeck cooncil are in a bit of a pickle over £750,000 or is he unaware about that?

And I know thats just the tip of the iceberg, his lot turned a blind eye to a LOT of things in the Labour controled cooncils NATIONWIDE consequentally cut backs and I WILL REITERATE what I have said in the past and on other posts in the forum the cutbacks should start at the TOP.

He witters on about what is wrong with the new coalition and whilst I,m sure its not perfect OMG the mess his lot left us in, and it beggers belief that HE can criticize anyone he,s not exactly a model citizen himself and a very poor rolemodel however his illusions of grandure hopefully will be shortlived.

And another thing he says nothing about the previous government leaving an EMPTY piggy bank and a curt note saying theres nothing left well that will wrankle me till the day I die.

He also has the audacity to question the future of the flood defence an Morpeth well if HE was that concerned why did it not get sorted sooner when his lot were in "power". I don,t recall him opening his mouth then, I know he was,nt our "local" M.P then however he did have his "profile" and why did,nt our local M.P at the time get it sorted?

And to cap it all off he asks us to remember our troops are these the same ones TONY BLAIR and his band of idiots sent to fight an illigal war and innocent men, women and children have lost their lives for,familys grieving over lost ones and is he THAT FAR up his own !*!@# that he thinks we will FORGET them, the mans a bliddy IDIOT.

Been saying he's an idiot on here for a while, I should know I worked with the idiot for ten bloody years and people still try to tell me how good he is. Open your eyes peeps before it's too late!! :dribble:

Here's another one gone...........

Wouldn't it be refreshing if Dave said he wasn't going to employ a spin doctor in chief? That the country had to take him as he was toff or not, and that he'd simply get on with the job of clearing up the mess and getting us back to sustained growth, without worrying about what the media hacks told everyone to think. That's how it used to be, and it worked!
