Potpourri of confusion

WELL John Dudley, I don’t thank heaven for your misguided medley of rambling.
It is a potpourri of confusion, either deliberate or spawned out if ignorance. I am inclined to course the devil to impose the likes of you on us.
Your assumption to whom I refer to as a twisted clique is dead wrong, mischievous and disingenuous.
My criticism of Cr Ed Chatwin’s letter focused on a repeat attempt at character assassination.
If you are opposed to criticism of a despicable practice, we can and must assume that you’re for it. More to the point is your judgment of me, which can only be based of hearsay and gossip.
What you refer to in your letter as common knowledge is of no interest or consequence to anybody bar you and the nest that spawned you.
Cr Chatwin’s queries, if based on a proper understanding of the issue and free of a hidden agenda, are no problem, raised in council. It is the insinuation in the letters pages by the councillor of dishonesty that rises concern and smack of character assassination.
Yes it is early days yet for the new council but what is clear now is that we have a voting block of four, come wind or high water the quartet will harmonise. I personally see no advantage in a council organised thus.
As for people’s voices having been muted and ignored, this is just so much rubbish not deserving further comment.
However the megalomania of the one, on the helm Ca-Ronald-inia will unfold itself before our eyes. Inform us of the cost of satisfying that inflated ego.
Stefan Mendi,
Nar-Nar Goon North.
