Council leader felt 'harassed and threatened'
What a complete idiot this man is, people feel so strongly about an issue so they try to talk to a reluctant local representative who throws a wobbly and says he felt 'harassed and threatened', well now he knows how the rest of us feel at our treatment by Hounslow Council. It's like being in a permanent state of war with these twerps.If the Dear Leader and his colleagues had an ounce of political nous they'd have stopped to consider the sizeable backlash the decision on wheelie bins has caused. There are some of us for whom they work well, but you really do have to consider that some areas are not suitable for these, and try listening to people's real concerns. Just brushing criticism to one side and refusing to engage is hardly the action of a councillor in tune with his constituents.I have just had a letter through my door also on a subject that people in Isleworth are up in arms over, the closure of Church St. something else where a sizeable public meeting showed its disagreement with this barmy decision, but which they are going to blunder on with anyway. Then they insult us all by having the absolute gall to say that 243 people responded to their 'informal consultation' and 60% of those supported the closure! That works out to 145 people, are they kidding? When by their own calculations this will push nearly 2,500 extra vehicles on to the Twickenham Rd. and down other residential streets! 'Harassed and threatened?' Well, you have your answer - try listening to people and not being so bloody arrogant!
