Who put that together?  Arch?  

We gave it away........ so it didn't actually go the same way as the Dodo but the result is the same.  

Didn't think you were that deluded pilgrim!  

Whey aye............

,,,,,,,,or not as the case maybe pilgrim!  

Maybe...........

West Bedlington Town Council, always keen to promote the interests of its residents have this time teamed up with the Department of Work and Pensions to put on a Jobs Fair in the town.  

If you want to find out more just come along on the day.........

That should go into the jokes section pilgrim!  

Just 'inserted' a strap line onto a WBTC poster about to come out.  

Haven’t read through the topic yet but there is possibly a simple reason for those stats. 

For years the cops have come along to our council meetings and Forum meetings telling us that the crime stats were down.   All about the ‘fear of crime’ remember that one!  I knew from personal experience that the last thing the cops wanted to do was give you a crime number and the only way to get one for a relatively ‘low’ crime was for an insurance claim. 

Well guess what, those stats have been used against them to justify cuts in the service!   

Now anything will get a crime number (directives from Chief Constables and I assume Crime Commissioners) to drive numbers up and show more cops are in fact needed! 

For my take I think we are about to see the REAL crime figures in areas for the first time! 

I'll put it in the next council newsletter Maggie.........great idea.  

Two new posters...........

Deport them I say then merc............

Defence.........like having most of our infrastructure and monopolist companies in foreign hands now?  

I'm listening to your argument GGG and transposing coal for steel.  

Well what a thread!

Do we really have a free market fundamentalist like GGG advocating subsidies whilst (I presume) a left of centre guy like merc advocates letting the market decide. 

(I know merc but for the purpose of accusing GGG of adapting spin to get over a political point!!!!!)

Beg to disagree with your point about animal language merc.......when I lived in France the locals all said that cockerels sang......."cock-a-rico" at dawn.  Now we all know they sing "Cock-a-doodle-do!"

Its the amount NCC have agreed to spend on capital projects Maggie.......you know like sports centres etc.,, whilst at the same time cutting jobs and services as part of their cost savings budget.  Is it just me????????

Over to you Merc and the cat defence league.........http://www.thedailymash.co.uk/politics/politics-headlines/jeremy-corbyns-cat-to-be-deported-for-not-learning-english-20160119105460

Dangerous position deporting people because of their language skills.........look around here and listen to the banter in the pubs and clubs....English??  certainly not to some!  

We seem back in the barmy days of Michael Foot!
