THE MAYOR AND COUNCILLORS

Jan from Ebdentown

I speak only to my direct experience of The Mayor and Councillors.

I began a conversation with my Mayor and Council in February 2017.
I exercised my democratic right to ask for information and to lobby Councillors.

I began posting to neighbourly documenting the treatment that I received at their hands, to much to go over again here. I stopped when the Library closed

I picked up the saga again when the Library reopened and as a result of my journey and the way I have been treated by my elected representatives, I have learned how our democracy is being eroded by people who don't want to be accountable to their ratepayers.

I hope that you will go back and read 2017 posts and that this has cleared up any confusion as to where I am coming from.

New Year, Same Brain Teasers!

Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

A man was found dead with a cassette recorder in one hand and a gun in the other.

When the police pressed “play,” the tape said, “I can’t go on,” and then there was a gunshot.

Yet, the police knew it was a murder.

How?
