english zloty Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 Whoop! It’s saved. thereby missing the point perhaps it shouldn’t be (if it costs a tonne of money to renovate) but proclaiming an emergency demolition without any evidence or due process is very misleading and wrong. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they don’t understand the disbelief shown by population over anything like this. It’s bordering on criminal and once again pushing through decisions that most are incredulous about. It’s a prime site though and this will have been the driving influence to drop. Wonder what part their pet developer had to do with the process. Good that they have now done a U turn.

After listening to Keys yesterday, I get the feeling Tim is getting a bit above himself. If he actually thinks he is on the same Ministerial level as Hooper, Lord-Brennan and Allison. Then, I think Cannan seriously needs a word with the chap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Mexico Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 2 minutes ago, Andy Onchan said: Crookall... taken in again! 🤣 You wonder how much Chris Thomas's dismissal wasn't due to his alleged lack of action on Crogga (where there doesn't seem to have been any more movement since) than his determination to make sure that proper processes were followed in relation to development and its funding. Clearly this annoyed Alf's property developer mates and they wanted to get rid of the person who they saw as the barrier to them getting hold of all that nice taxpayers money. So Alf took over and the ever-pliable Crookall was then installed. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither can my wife, but that doesn't stop her turning into Magellan anytime I dare to attempt to take an unsanctioned route. Could they not just leave one outside the Caff whilst grabbing some breakfast? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or has a cash-strapped Govt found the cheap option for disposal with environmental considerations taking 2nd place? If this was a private operation you can bet that DEFA would be down on this proposal like a ton of bricks. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
