Kent's toxic burghers: KCC May election

Kent is failing. Time for Change at the May elections for KCC councillors and Rmasgate Mayor: 1. Directly-elected Leader: Sack Carter - no more West Kent leaders elected for all Kent by their Party robots. No more Conservative overwhelming domination of the council: for 70 years a farce of democracy. 2. Votes at 16: make this the last election: County or District without 16 and 17 year olds voting. Agreed years ago by KCC but nothing done. And limit councillors over 70. 3. Full FOI: publish all KCC salaries, pensions, expenses, cars, buildings each month. 7 years since FOI and secrecy of civil service costs continues. £2BN of public funds without details. 4.

Just the twiddling of thumbs and blame game or silence. Time for arrests at KCC and TDC. Time for extradition and arrests of Infratil. Time for arrests at EA and SW. Happy World Cancer Day.
