Knobheads of The Year - Cambridgeshire County Council
Congratulations to Cambridgeshire County Council for voting themselves "Knobheads of The Year".
How did they achieve this magnificent award?
Simples!
Despite protests outside Shire Hall, Cambridgeshire County councillors voted themselves a 25% pay rise.
What??
Even though we are in the middle of a recession, and facing years of austerity?
How could they possibly be so insensitive, arrogant and selfish?
Simples!
According to a review panel councillors were ‘undervalued’, on their existing allowances, and a rise to £9,500 was needed to allow ‘local democracy to prosper’.
Pass the sick bag someone!
Council Leader Nick Clarke does very nicely out of the deal. His pay rises from £29,246 to £38,000.
Remember folks, the more money councillors get the more "local democracy prospers!"
Councils are the enemies of the people, and Cambridgeshire County Council are Knobheads of The Year!
BTW, they are Tories!
