TDC: the wages of failure

TDC senior staff salaries now revealed after dozens of FOI requests:

This doesn't - as yet - include expenses and other benefits eg parking.

I have an Excel of all the other c.750 council salaries of £22M if anyone would like a copy.

And it seems the councillors are not briefed on these salaries at council meetings - what is the purpose of councillors then?

Tea and biscuits - and idle pomp and ceremony?

And look at the bloat and waste.

Salaries of c.£70-110k for managing monopoly public services and tax-funds.

Sheer bloat and waste.

And TDC is still one of Britain's worst councils.

What has been going on?

What have our councillors and MP's been doing with their tax-salaries and tax-expenses?

Over a quarter of a million pounds for each of Messrs Gale and Ladyman - to watch tax funds being sprayed up the wall and the towns burn down.

And mere silence from Sandys parachuted in from Tory Head Office for a seat.

The collapse of Thanet and parliamentary democracy in sheer waste and incomeptence.

And still the planes fly over the towns shedding cancer fuel droplets onto the population.

The highest lung cancer rate.

The most polluted drinking water.

The worst council.

Silence from our MP's and councillors and civil servants.

Mere petty posturing and sqaubbling for the wages of failure as the towns burn down and fall down.

Time for Change.
