We’re thinking that you’re thinking what we’re thinking!
Yes you are right followers. Isn’t it time there were a few new borough councillors to step into “Your Waverley’s” ring?
Why? Because some, just don’t appear be taking their jobs very seriously!
It is quite revealing looking through the Attendance Records of councillors supposedly serving “Our Waverley.”
Some of whom think it is good enough to rock up on the odd occasion, say nothing, contribute nothing, sometimes use the council chamber for a quiet kip,
and then go back to the village or town they crawled out of? Some of them even slithered in “unopposed.” So what does that say about us?
