Warwickshire Reform County Council leader resigns, leaving 18-year-old in charge

Rob Howard leaves his position as leader of Warwickshire County Council, citing health concerns.

www.bbc.co.uk

and so it begins! Literally leaving Tory Boy in charge.

Leaving on the sick, how woke of him. It's about time these young people boomers started stepping up.

Hasn't worked in Hungary because the cost of living is so much higher in relation to wages plus only just come out of double digit inflation.

TBF it would take a long long time to shift the dial much on birth rates in any case, and tbf the birth rate in Hungary did go up by third between 2011 and 2021

How many councillors have you engaged with out of interest?

About a decade ago I managed to get Richard Brown (lab) in Cheylesmore to see to it some clothing/shoe banks on the green by Quinton Pool were removed because they were attracting lots of fly tipping and litter.

It took me about half a dozen emails with photos over quite a number of months before the problem was sorted and much of the delay was down to gross council inefficiency and failure to do what they promised to do till nudged.

The one tory counciller in the ward did not ever reply to my emails.

Moral of the story is you can get something done but you need to be persistant and find a councillor who isn't just in it for the prestige.

I no longer live in Coventry.

 

[torchomatic]

Fair comment.

 

[torchomatic]

Dumb as fuck.

 

[Sick Boy]

So... no one then.

I think he might be talking about you.

 

[PVA]

I think he might be talking about you.

I know.

So nobody has 'wanked over a Labour councillor' then.

100% been in pictures with arms folded next to a pothole.

It's just hard to keep up with you given everything you post is just stuff you've made up in your head and then got angry about.

I'm guessing you have never actually seen somebody get angry aside from the fist shaking at the labour meetings or when you and others post up reform / tory nonsense?

No, I pointed out how fucking silly you and others look and no surprise the exact people responded to it...

Nah, you made something up. Again. Nobody has wanked over a Labour councillor.

 

[shmmeee]

Nah, you made something up. Again. Nobody has wanker over a Labour councillor.

You know what for a joke I just scrolled through the photos of Cov and Warwickshire council to find one fit one I could say “I’d give it a go” about and what I’ve found is that councillors of all stripes are perhaps the most unattractive grouping of people outside the mad hatters.

 

[Nick]

The fact that you are taking it so literally

Must be dull as fuck in the church hall Labour meetings.

I'm offended at how you are objectifying these people. (Well, until it's somebody from a political party I don't like and then I will be joining in and high fiving myself for posting tweets).

Christ you're weird.

Seriously mate. Two councils and Mattie Heaven of the tories is the only one that wouldn’t be a very tough wank. How’s that for reaching across the aisle?

 

[Nick]

Christ you're weird.

Again, the fact you and Torch thing I'm weird when neither you of you seem to leave the house and obsess over politics and Labour is comforting to me. I bet the "Keir We Go Again" Whatsapp group will be popping right off tonight.

Porn star name though.

You spend your life making stuff up. It's weird. But whatever floats your boat.

 

[Nick]

Yep, all day every day, entirely made up. I am probably just used to talking to people who don't take everything literally and live their lives based on politics, so I'm not used to how it works.

Aside from here, I never hear (just to confirm, I know it's read on here as I don't actually hear it) discussions about politics. Thank fuck. Imagine going to meet your mates and one of them starts blabbing on about a Manifesto.

(Just to confirm for you, I don't think you actually have a "Keir We Go Again" Whatsapp group, that would mean a sense of humour)

Fucking envy you man, I can’t even pick up a weed without getting twenty minutes of conspiracy about how Keir Starmer is a gay Muslim and there’s a coming race war.

Literally nothing about politics, never have. It's lovely.

 

[Grendel]

I know.

So nobody has 'wanked over a Labour councillor' then.

I did ask have you had any interaction with any councillor?

 

[Grendel]

Oh dear. Cheap crack and staggering in a Bedworth bed sit on a hot day.

 

[PVA]

I did ask have you had any interaction with any councillor?

Thankfully not with any Reform councillors.

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Seriously mate. Two councils and Mattie Heaven of the tories is the only one that wouldn’t be a very tough wank. How’s that for reach around the aisle?

FFY

 

[Grendel]

Thankfully not with any Reform councillors.

That’s not answering the question but of course actually is.

 

[PVA]

That makes no sense, but if you really are desperate to know then yes I have.

 

[Grendel]

That makes no sense, but if you really are desperate to know then yes I have.

It makes total sense as you avoid the question

Which councillors have you met?

 

[PVA]

It makes total sense as you avoid the question

Various councillors all over the country.

No one gives a fuck who I've met you weirdo

Oh dear. None then.

Internet point fail.

 

[PVA]

What's the fucking point? The names will mean nothing to you unless you claim to know every councillor in the land.
