David it is the way we do things now. Councils all over the western world are well in debt. My home town has plenty of it and it's growing. I wonder how our kids will pay for our excesses. We vote in council members who have no idea about money (people like me) and we wonder why it gets worse.
Many U.S. councils are in deep trouble. They employ the police and fire departments. I have heard about them being laid off in some areas.
Have I blown this out or what?

Default How true

Hi Guys

Your comments are all valid and true. I think we have placed a wedge in a very, very big crack which will open a big can of worms.

Cheers

Tony

Hold the parade without Council permission and challenge the Mayor to order the police to arrest all the Diggers (serving and retired) and their families!!

When the great city of Ottawa took over our municipalty in a big land and tax grab some years ago I was told I would have to pay a large fee to conduct the annual Remembrance Day parade (I was organising on behalf of the Legion).

I told them I would see them on the front pages of the national news and got a call back in short order saying that fees for veterans' parades would be waived!

At least our politicians realised they were in an indefensible position unlike the idiot Mayor downunda'.

Remember 'poly' is the Greek word for "many" and ticks are blood sucking parasites!!

Cheers and Ubique! Mike

Hi Guys

As we move into a world of "Political Correctness" and stupidity. I am afraid this is all I say. Click on the link below. This should say it all.
