Deafening Silence

Manorbier Community Council lose their court case with ICT Marketing.

Surprisingly enough, the Council's blogging mouthpiece has been very quiet on the matter - obviously licking his masters wounds, from what will no doubt turn out to be a very severe beating.

Congratulations (with a hint of sarcasm) must be in order for certain members of Manorbier Community Council, who were instrumental in the defence of this claim.

Despite clear legal advice from the outset, from the Council's Solicitors (Lowless & Lowless), to settle the case before it went too far, two Manorbier Community Councillors in particular were hell bent on making sure the case was defended - and it now turns out to be - at considerable cost.

The total cost of defending this case has cost somewhere in the region of £20,000. That is besides the cost of the claim itself, which is almost £5,000. As stated in previous posts, this can only be described as catastrophic for such a small community council - for those who are not familiar with this matter, previous posts will enlighten you.

So, where are Manorbier Community Council now? What is the Council's next blundering move going to be?

Cllr Davies was challenged in a local public house over his role in this monumental disaster and as he is a serving member of Manorbier Community Council, was branded as being part of the problem. Clearly not so, you only have to look at official Council Minutes to see what his position has consistently been in all of this.

The comparison made to illustrate his position in this catastrophy was interesting - he compared Manorbier Community Council to an out of control bus. Some members of the Council were merely passengers on that bus, which was under the control of two incompetent drivers.

The bus has now crashed.

If there is any justice in this world, resignations must surely be forthcoming.
