Sefton MBC first against the wall when the revolution comes.
I once lived in the once nice town of Southport.
Everyone says its really nice, well nice to visit, try living there.

Southport comes under the control of Sefton. The local council do seem to be a corrupt and incompetant bunch, bent on destroying the town. Like most councils really.

One crime involved getting in pay and display parking meters, the rumour is one of the councillors bought a loud of meters as a job lot, then sold them to the council, just as they brought in Pay and Display.

Other crimes...
Lets see, sell the entertainment complex to a private business, allow the funfair to be closed and then huge chunks of it sent to blackpool, now its full of dodgy pikeys.

Building a monumental garden for Princess Diana out of cheap stone, that chips if you sneeze on it. (to be fair the skaters and BMXers wrecked it, but why build it so cheap!? and why build it any way?)

Allow any useful or any building leasure related to be sold off and made into flats...
Flats flats, 90% of southport is flats. No wonder Blackpool (our ahem rivals) is bum raping southport.

And most of these flats are luxury flats...you get the feeling that the council are in the pocket of the owners/developers etc.

Not to mention letting Tesco build yet another store. Threes not enough?
Of course tesco really don't bully councils into forcing them to build whatever they like, do they?

One last crime of many: The bad, unprofessional and childish treatment of a local online news forum, by Southport Council.
Ever notice how often local papers are pro council, because they are in the pay of the local council.



Aaaaargh!!!!!!!!!! Spleen vented.

I am really glad I left.

Balls to length, so sue me !!
