The New Mayor of Doncaster

This has been published by the Mayors office. He started in June.

I think we would all like to see this sort of thing. so good luck to him.

Priorities

The Mayor is committed to improving the borough and ensuring residents are offered the best possible services.

Progress / Key decisions since taking office

• Appointed a mixed Cabinet of committed Councillors

• Cut Mayor's salary from around £73,000 to £30,000 per year

• Axed Mayor's chauffeur driven car (approximately £6,000)

• Stopped future funding for gay pride event (£3,000)

• Stopped council newspaper Doncaster News

• Directed that two children's social worker posts be reinstated at Doncaster Royal Infirmary to specifically assist children in hospital and to help detect abuse

• Axed membership of Local Government Association and Local Government Information Unit (approximately £80,000)

• Where possible, stopped funding for translation services and instead encourage people to learn English

• Cut twinning ties with five towns saving approximately £4,000+

• Written to the Electoral Commission to cut the number of Councillors from 63 to 21 which could save upwards of £1,000,000

Future priorities

• Lower Council Tax by cutting extortionate levels of bureaucracy and other waste

• End malpractice and mismanagement in the council

• Hold a referendum on the Mayoral governance of Doncaster

• Reduce the number of councillors from 63 to 21

• Conduct a review of the A638 Quality Bus Corridor and the traffic mayhem around the Dome

• Scrap politically correct non-jobs and encourage the former employees to seek meaningful employment

• Encourage every school to opt out of local authority control – money should go directly to schools to raise deteriorating educational standards

• Ensure police concentrate resources on catching criminals

• Introduce zero tolerance of anti-social behaviour and impose penalties for such everyday practices as using foul language in public and spitting in the street

• Halt the architectural vandalism of Doncaster and protect the town’s heritage

Norwich North

Nothing to say, but at last we can now see an end to this Labour government. The results are far worse than Labour excepted.

I think they have got a good MP.

Norwich North

Have you noticed how the Labour spin ( lie ) machine has the media all saying the
" the Tories are expected to win Norwich North"

Well it is not a forgone conclusion it is just labour preparing the ground to take to spotlight off their loss.

By elections can come up with all sort of results but the key issue is how many votes Labour has, no matter who wins.

Norwich has nothing to thank Labour for.

Every generation has to learn about Labour the hard way.

Labour have Mugged Britain

When you thing about it I feel that Labour has conned and mugged the British people with the English in particular.

I cannot wait to be rid of them and we start re building our country.

When Will They Tell Us

When will Labour tell us how they are going to get us out of the mess they have made of things.

All they can do is smear anyone who does not agree.

The BBC just acts as their mouthpiece.

Just what are the Labour plans.

When will we know.

Great Tory Win in Norfolk

The Conservatives have increased their majority on the County Council.

Labour are now in third place behind the Lib/Dem's.

The people have told Brown what they think of him.

He is seen as the problem not the solution.

Who to Vote For

If you are in doubt I would recomend Tory.

If you are totaly anti Tory then UKIP.

The results on Friday will be very interesting.

How ever you look at it it will not be good news for Labour.
