strange!!

Cllr Ferguson tweets i wonder why there are no opposition Swinton South Councillors at the Budget cuts Forum,

Oh just a second the Independent Councillor as just walked in change that.so who was left?

Process of elimination– The Liberal Democrat.

Well the local Liberal Democrat seems like he wants to stop the xmas lights.

It concerned me that we were spending a lot of money four years ago,and i thought the traders should do thier bit and dip there hands in thier pockets to help,sadly we don’t have any traders left,four years ago though we had money to play with,but thanks to the Tories and the Liberal Democrats our council will have to face massive cuts,so tell you what Mr Liberal Democrat let the council put up Christmas Lights and let all of Salford Celebrate Christmas because under your Government many people who your Party claim to represent will have little to celebrate after Christmas. I think many accross this city have not yet realised how bad the situation will be once these cuts take effect,and when they do i hope they come to you to ask for your views.

Something that every one in this city must remember

Northern Rock was a bank one of many out of control because it was not supervised .The Financial Services Authority and the Bank of England failed because it ignored the warning signs.

But New Labour was the architect of an Economic policy that created the monster of Northern Rock.Gordon Brown boasted the economy was enjoying the best performance for three centuries even though it was built on nothing more than debt.

And that is fact so no matter how much the Local or National Labour party tell you anything else that is where the real problems began. Don’t let them fool you with there glossy leaflets,yes we can all see what the Tories with the help of there camp followers are doing but don’t fall in to the trap of voting Labour look back and ask yourselves why after 13 years were they dumped in the first place.

Coailition’s extra pupil cash a con?

Nick clegg confirms for the first time in a letter to the shadow schools secretary that the Government is protecting per pupil funding only in cash terms not real terms a de facto cut of million of pounds.

He also reveals that the future funding mechanism for the premium  could concentrate the money on disadvantaged pupils in shire schools instead of urban ones.
