Paid but nowhere to be seen! USELESS!

Where is Cllr Len Bloomer? he is the very long standing member of the great and the good who tell us how to live and spend all our money raised from local taxes.

Yes he is the one who said

" he is fed up of the public sending him concerned letters about HS2" saying that the County Council is doing nothing.

Having spoken to his bosses, it turned out that like many other councils, they are actually and factually doing nothing......nothing above the very minimum required by law.

The very same Len Bloomer who said that the reason that the County Council has no money for communities, was that there was too many children in care, too many vulnerable people needing help.

He completely forgot to mention the millions spent on business parks, the millions spent on profits for the businesses that have taken over public services they have outsourced. Oh yes and the new Jag for the Chief Executive while slashing bus services in the county.

Cllr Bloomer over the last 5 years from the public purse has been paid £49,371

In the last 2 years, that's 24 months Cllr Bloomer has attended Colwich Parish Council Meetings just twice

On both of those occasions he didn't have anything to say, apart from there is no money and you are not getting anything from the County Council. He could have sent someone else along, sent a report of what he was doing, most months we struggle to get an apology for not attending.

Question? Are we getting anywhere near value for money for the cash the good people of Staffordshire are paying out.

Question? Just what have the County Council done for our community in recent years? well I have to tell you I have looked and over the last 5 years I am really struggling to find ONE THING. Yet this councillor is returned by this community year on year, just because he always has been.

I say that the problem this Cllr is a "Has Been" he definitely is no longer any good for this community.

The local ruling elite are now so used to being elected they are now taking it all for granted, they don't have to turn up for meetings, dont have to do anything in the community, just send a few leaflets around at election time and they just get re-elected and for what? doing absolutely nothing to help this community.

Now for those of you who will say this is just a left wing rant, remember I am not saying this about Cllr Perkins Conservative, who attends regularly  and I am on record of thanking him for the hard work he does. I am not saying this about Jeremy Lefroy MP Conservative who attends all his surgeries and is on record of supporting many community projects not least the recent football pitch issue at Shugborough.

Cllr Len Bloomer has become distant arrogant and completely useless to the community, its time for him to go, he just takes the money and does nothing for us here in the Haywoods. Yet he relies on our votes to get elected.

Its time for a change!
