IS ELLIOT'S JOB SAFE?

Some of the new Libcon government ideas to save money seem, although I hate to admit it a lot of sense.
The scrapping of the thousands of non jobs in local government is a long overdue policy.
Jobs such as "Cheerleader development officer" and "Audience development officer" and many more should be abolished.

However who authorised these positions? Was it some overpaid bureaucrat? If so he or she should be sacked for acting in such a spendthrift way with taxpayers money, money which we are obliged on pain of prison to pay (come to that who authorised the pay rise of our Chief Excecutive's £45,000 pay rise two years ago?).
It is easy to spend other people's money especially when it is extorted by the State. In effect we have a State backed protection racket and there seems little we can do as the councillors can not or will not do anything to rectify this theft. Perhaps they are in on it and part of the problem.

Nobody in Wigan asked for Elliot Brown's position to be created, a "race equality coordinator" or some such bureaucratic title who seems to have authority over us and yet despises us as inbred.
Not much democracy there, and yet from our so called representitives (councillors) not a twitter.

Wigan Metro and councils all over the country have the methods and morals of Al Capone.
Democracy? Forget it.

Will the new government sort this undemocratic extortion racket? I hope so but I'm not holding my breath.
