2 March (Part 3) - Taylor and Craske. Thick as thieves
In the final paragraph of the
blog of 26 January I
mentioned that the councillor Craske had opposed a
London-wide increase of £10 in the cost of parking fines and wondered how that
fitted in with his policies locally. Several people said I was being naive and had
swallowed his dishonest posturing whole. They said that with a Labour majority in
London as a whole there was no chance Craske’s vote could do anything so he could,
so to speak, have his cake and eat it. I supposed they were right. It was good headlines
coupled with more profit for his parking scams.
Now I feel even more stupid. Buried away in the cabinet proposals document I
obtained last Monday evening is the following statement. “Review penalty charge
notice (PCN) banding to include other town centres as Band A, not just
Bexleyheath. Currently other town centres (Welling, Sidcup, Bexley) are at the
lower band and the PCN fees are also therefore lower.” What more proof could
there be that Craske is a two-faced devious liar? He voted to keep fines down
where he knew he could have no effect but is proposing they be increased
locally. I’ll say it again, Craske is two-faced and
among the most obnoxious examples of humanity I have ever come across.
I’ve not finished yet…
In the documentation for this evening’s full council meeting is the following
question from “Councillor Chris Taylor to Councillor Peter Craske, Cabinet
Member for Transport: Could the Cabinet Member confirm how he voted at the London Councils Transport
and Environment Committee on 9th December in relation to the proposals put
forward by the Labour Party to increase parking fines by £10 and to set a £200
fine for the Olympic Route Network?”
Is councillor Chris Taylor(Colyers ward, £9,543)
so utterly stupid that he thinks his ridiculous bit of
question planting won’t be exposed?. Chris; just
because you look like a junior member of the Young Conservatives Club doesn’t mean you
have to act like a schoolboy creeping up to his teacher with a highly polished
apple. Treating the electors as fools is sheer stupidity in the age
of the internet. You can’t confine your idiocies to the council chamber now.
