What is becoming increasingly clear with Shepway's Tories is their intention to keep democracy in the dark. Because of an inability to defend their actions through honest debate they have now stooped to the level of silencing criticism of any sort by whatever possible means.
Shepway Council Chief Executive has announced a new delay to the planned Shepway Council planning meeting to debate the proposed expansion of Lydd Ashford Airport. In a statement emailed to members, Alistair Stewart said:
Kent Highway Services are going to undertake some essential maintenance work on The Leas between Clifton Gardens and West Terrace (Monument House). The work will involve planing off the old surface to a depth of 40mm along the parking side and 100mm along the main running lane, where the base course will be replaced the same night. Once this has all been completed, a new surface course will be applied over the whole area which will be followed by the replacement of all of the road markings.
DEFRA have confirmed that Sandgate, near Folkestone, has met the most stringent Guideline standards in testing of water quality over the past year, with one of the cleanest beaches on the Kent channel coast.
Remember the MPs' expenses scandal of duck houses, moats and mattresses? The public outrage has diminished since our MPs disappeared on their summer holidays. But MPs who do not wish to derail the gravy train hope that time will be a good healer and the public will forget. This long wait for MPs to sort out their own scandal should be finalised as soon as possible. Sir Christopher Kelly, Chairman of the Committee on Standards in Public Life, attacked MPs for allowing themselves to scrutinise their own expenses. His first thoughts were, quiet rightly, that even if they did, it would not command full public confidence. There should be no doubt that Sir Christopher's expenses review should be accepted, in full.
