Whose the daddy now!!!

Deep in the bowels of Fortress Civic or 1st Floor anyway, in the Chiswick Tory Junta Bunka Cllr Thomson has sent out invasion plans, it appears he is with out an office how could this of happened, it seems the H.I.A not to be confused with the CIA, have captured the leaders office in a gorilla offensive , The self styled revolutionary  Cllr Che Connoly  has already been seen to fly his flag from this new territory. The Labour Group are moving to a new defensive position which will see  possibly the Lib Dems small territory fly a neutral flag of yellow next door.Leader of the Chiswick Tory Junta has sent out pleading missives of understanding to the Labour Group who have declined involvement in ousting the rebels from the prized bit of land that is now being held by Cllr Che Connoly.Will Cllr Thompson  be preparing  his prized storm troopers led by Cllr Oulds to take the new ground or will he have to admit Cllr Connoly is the new daddy now.

Jim,I've commented elsewhere today on the griping and grumbling that is very current on our forums, but  I am so glad you stayed the course.  I only wish Adrian Lee would put in an occasional appearance with more of his fascinating questions about the past in our Old Boroughs.Photos of Lots Ait are superb, but who was the "Lot" after whom the Ait was named?  Any idea?

I was just getting really teed off with TW8 until I saw your lovely description:  ..."One with his super-charged chariot and the other with a brown paper bag over his head..."  LOL!We shouldn't let these weird postings get to us:      "Leave them alone and they'll go home,      carrying their tails behind them!"as the nursery rhyme advises.

Cllr PhilThere's nothing worse than when one of these Room 101 characters get under your skin..and you spent hours and hours on the Forums trying to get through to their brain cells.Its like playing table tennis against a blanket..and somehow they are never defeated and they come back again!In recent months, I've spent many a weekend trying to get the crackpots out of my head..battling away with them instead of getting on with my studies and work.So Phil, I have every sympathy for you knowing you have lots on your plate..but why shouldn't you be able to come to the Forums when you are off duty to have a relaxing and sometimes stimulating time.It took me two weeks to recover from the SA saga..and now I see that he may be back. I'm not amused.  Many people sent me e-mails of support..so it wasn't just a private one v one  private matter..as you've indicated!I hope we can return to a fun and stimulating Forum and get away from all these crappy unintelligible postings..which all seem to be of a similar style. You are more tolerant about these things than I Phil. I can't stand it! That's why I took such a stand last time..and was relieved to think that the headache had gone away.I'll get back to Lots Ait..and pretend all is well!

'One of them with his super-charged chariot and the other with a brown paper bag over his head...'I can just picture it,looking like Bill Tidy(RIP)cartoon.Great image Cllr Andrews!

"Phil is brain bashed..not surprisingly..and is seeking solace at TW8!"JimI presume it must be me, but one can only put up with so much of this.  My view is that I should leave ex-Cllr. Ewes and Mr. Evans to get on with TW8 - they seem such a good team and I'm sure they'll have a lot to talk about at the Six Bells, one of them with his super-charged chariot and the other with a brown paper bag over his head - and concentrate my efforts on helping George to build TW7.Honest debate requires honest people.  It is a shame that a good enterprise can be ruined by the few who refuse to abide by the spirit of free and democratic debate.

KeithWhat can we do? The Brentford and Chiswick Forums have a serious problem..and Topics and threads are being ruined!Room 101?And SA may somehow have returned to add to the gloom!Phil is brain bashed..not surprisingly..and is seeking solace at TW8!

Que angelic music or the one you get free as a ringtone on a mobile.Today at the civic centre car park people  came to listen to St Andrew (Patron saint of Anti-Racists) preach from the civic steps, " I say low onto you lot it is written on my web-site search-light, the Tribune and the Evenining Standard do not no what they say, for I am the the true fighter of rights.Que ringtone musicSt Andrew is witnessed to asscend to Heaven.The crowd gasps in awe and a voice from the back says looking " ere he's got no nickers on under that smock"

Sorry I am no longer a Cllr, however I think one of the ICG lot of Cllrs was doing something about this issue, it may be worth asking Cllr Andrews to respond to you.

Rather than mobilising troops in the Mayor's Car Park (nice that he has one) slot! Do you think they could mobilise their combined forces to sort out the parking in Amhurst Gardens? No one wants to pay the West Middlesex hospital car parking prices, which means they park outside my bunker, which in turn means I can't park my Panzer Tank.

James Kirkby ● 6865d

I'm glad you managed to spell "public" correctly David.  We could have had hours of fun with that one.

The residents of Engerland Hounslow will be delighted to know we will be renaming the new section 106 community use building being built onto Fortress Civic “Porter House” after our great mentor Dame Shirley. This will no doubt be met with much mass celebration from you the residents and hence we shall create a new day for everyone, May Day  will hence be known as Dame Day. Many of the residents of Hounslow will be pleased to be able to remember such a wonderful lady here in Hounslow as many of you where given the opportunity to live here.

Cllr Thompson mass Mobilisation of troops in the mayor's car parking space is not going well, it seem's that most of his troops are still on holiday in villa's in spain or whats known as fact finding mission's.

Sorry Jim I was not Chair, but did chair one of the committee's, my wife is enjoying being a Cllr as she has allways been a member of the Labour Party in her own right, there was a time when you joined social clubs or committee's that women where seen as partners to the male, I would advice not to take this stance as she would kick your male member, full respects to my wife.. At last genaral Election she did stand against Brenard Jenkins MP a front bench Tory. It was very good campaign from both sides and very enjoyable to see hustings and the local students in Essex asking about policy from all the parties.

Thanks Jim yes I took a direct hit in recent battles, however have moved on to reporting the front line battle scenes at Fortress Civic.I am more involved with trying to get a regenaration project for a community hall these days and working in the music industry, its a real shame that a lot of our community halls are struggling to cope and are trying to reach out to new people to become involved.

""Brilliant ! Nice to see some wit being exercised instead of the derogatory banter that takes place far too often!""Agreed, we must respect the fact that Dave (ex-Councillor David Hughes) was a key figure in the previous Labour Administration.Believeably he was, at one time, the powerful Chairman of the Hounslow Council "Overview and Scutiny Panel" Committee...which kept an eye on some of the £600,000,000 that the Civic Centre spends annually.His good wife is still on the Borough Council..whilst he wascast aside at the recent Voting by his Ward's electorate.So, welcome David..lets hear more!!

I don't know about a gorilla offensive. It looks as if this thread was started by a baboon!

John Connelly ● 6868d

No problem it seems Cllr Thompson has no office in the move around taking place and has sent memos complaining.

Dave Hughes ● 6868d

Any chance of explaining in plain English what you are going on about?
