So states the press release on the front page of the RCT Council website. It goes on to say that “on the 6th June, Cabinet is to make proposals for a total of £74M of investment in our schools, libraries and highways infrastructure.”
Now this is all well and good, but what is the point of this press release, or more importantly what is the point of wasting money getting the Cabinet together. We all know that in RCT nothing is ever open or accountable. Cabinet meetings are only there to rubber stamp decisions already made. But why be quite so blatant about it?
“Council Leader Russell Roberts described the proposals as a clear demonstration of the administration’s commitment to delivering on its promises.” So is there really any chance whatsoever of his colleagues not doing what they are told and nodding sagely as these magnificent proposals are put to them? Next they'll expect us to believe that the consultation will actually matter.
Give me strength!
