Surely as a simple matter of common courtesy he should have been invited? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaughan Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Satire is an excellent vehicle for opinion and in this case it comes from an informed source which we should not ignore. Personally I think the whole saga of this sign is lamentable and its opening ceremony did no-one any credit. Does it really require "chains of office" to put up a tourism sign on a railway platform? To say nothing of the cost. Unless it was also felt to have some local political import, of course? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennyMorgan Posted April 12, 2017 Author Share Posted April 12, 2017 I have long regarded the Doctor as a wholly confirmed 'control freak'. Another example comes from the recent agenda of the committee that is the Broads Authority. Coincidently the 'accounts' for the previous period won't be available until the day after the meeting, how very convenient 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnks34 Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Who are his superiors JM? Who does he answer to? It just seems far to cosy for him in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timbo Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 His position is a political appointment. He was appointed by Tony Bliar's government I seem to recollect. He answers to the Secretary of State for the Environment, currently Angela Leadsom, then the prime minister but ultimately to the tax payer.

JennyMorgan Posted April 13, 2017 Author Share Posted April 13, 2017 Effectively he is supposed to answer to the chairperson of the Broads Authority. Trouble is that the Chairperson dances to his tune. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
