Thanks Barry.
Maybe they like to be dominated and told what to do - either by their leader at DDC or higher up the party chain. Whereas we local Conservatives prefer open, intelligent discussion.

well sue being publicly removed from her housing portfolio didnt happen then
ALL POSTS ARE MY OWN PERSONAL VIEWS
Is this the best forum to discuss that? I am not sure what the issues were, about this, and it may be that it was not all about toeing the party line.

bern;
it was, and was a public rebuke
and i know sue wasnt happy at the time
of course sue has got a sweeterner now(chair of council) but sues passion was that housing portfolio.
maybe once sue is removed as chair she will post on this issue

I used to keep ducks as a hobby until a fox went and beheaded most of them.

Its all recorded in the press .Yes Housing was my passion and I enjoyed every moment of my six years doing that job .I was given another job on THe Regional Housing Board which was very interesting .Then I became Vice Chairman and now Chairman .
There has to be a time when younger and new blood joins the Cabinet .I was Chairman of Scrutiny for three years so I have held some top jobs ..
I enjoy being Chairman as I like meeting people .
In the forth coming year I intend to visit evey Parish .I have already made a start with Capel and Shepherdswell .
Over the Jubilee Im visiting Sandwich ,Dover ,Shepherdswell and Capel .On my off duty day I shall visit the Crabble Corn Mill Beer festival

Well said and well done Sue.
Maybe see you at Crabble on Saturday lunchtime (ish) ?
We're going to the Tattoo in the evening, so a full day. Pity there's so many things going on at the same time.

As Batman and Robin continue to embarrassingly deny they are `sheep`in the Conservative Party I have asked DDC under
FOI Act for the details.Fuhrer has been quiet since his first post.
Another idea is to ask Lord Leveson to call them before his Inquiry but I would advise Lord Leveson of the potential outcome;
Robin will talk and talk until Robert Jay QC obtains the answers he is after...Batman will tell them all they are fools,have no
knowledge,no experience and are a bunch of knownuffinkers.....Fuhrer will follow and join in with previous witnesses in a
festival/chorus of forgetfullness.

Reg - you can carry on insulting us telling people that we are lying but we know that you are so up your own behind you have no idea about what the truth is.

Apparently our current Parliament is the most rebellious ever.
Backbenchers are now far more likely to defy the ``Whip``Contagion needs to spread to DDC.
Nadine Dorries rebels on Twitter but agrees with the Tory ``Whip``everytime????
How ever Parliament has many groups who defy the ``Whip``the 81 group and the 301 group plus other small groups.
It is healthy to defy the ``Whip``.DDC is not healthy.....apparently.
