Early Days

An interesting but somewhat frustrating first week post election, namely that fellow English Democrat Cllr Elliott Fountain and I have had a few challenges trying to get information from officers at the council due to the Chief exec apparently banning Cllrs and officers speaking unless its through the head of department. Now of course I expect that the heads of each dept are very busy people so the last thing they need is Cllrs constantly calling them to seek advice and or clarification on ward matters ( as has been the case this week), the off shot of that has been having to wait days to get calls returned and emails answered.

I have emailed the Chief Exec for clarification, and await a reply.

However we are undeterred and in typical Bulldog spirit will keep on until we have the answers we need.......is Boston Borough Council prepared???
