The header says loud and clear..........
It seems to me that what is unclear, is the fact that newly elected youth councillors are now above these such web pages..
It may be that have thrown their PC`s away though, so i must not comment too much about it........
Pass the crisps please....oh forgot ,please and sorry not in their vocabulary
Sorry but it all smacks of further self-promotion ,any bets on how many times we have to put up with their faces plastered across the Gazette pages in the next year ?
Now why are they still leaders of the Tendring Youth Council ,which incidentaly is nothing to do with TDC ,I was under the impression that Tendring Youth Council was independant from politics....seems to me that they are run by the Tory Party ,two tory councillors ,their Mum and DC.

Seems to me that its all a "bonding thing"
A bit like super glue....
looks good on paper, but think of that when you have got your bum stuck to a loo seat in a school prank..........
Not funny.........snigger.....honest....it wernt me guvner.....lol...
All this and more from your lunch time reporter from the driest place in the country...Honest.....lol...
I now see why Stephen wanted me to stay on the YC, he once told me that if he were to be otherwise busy, he wanted a reliable person to lead the YC and that's why I'd been given the position that I had, when I asked about Danny he said he couldn't trust him to replace him. He's been planning this for a long time methinks.
Individually they are nice people (most of the time) but together it's like being in the war path... Danny is like a jealous little brother, he can't stand to be in Stephen's shadow, and Stephen is the typical smug eldest, everything has to be done his way.
But I suppose that's one quality that's gotten him in the papers so many tmes. Unfortunately he doesn't believe in showing the younger members faces in the paper and prefers himself to be there...
OK, i wonder if we did a poll on just who knows the terrible two..
ask the public just what have the terrible two done of late..
ask the public what they look like...
ask the public if and why they voted for them..
ask the public how much faith they have in them......
So many questions......
So little action............
I know what they look like as they are splattered all over the papers every week .
Anyone see the Anglia news last night reporting on BPC ???? guess who I saw practically pushing the Pm to one side whilst trying to get on camera ,when the PM (oooh sorry EX PM) visited a few years ago ????/.....yup mr pass the crisps.....

i heard our friend danny got in trouble for wearing a pair of shorts and flip flops to a council meeting,i saw in the local paper too that he asked a question at a council meeting about obese children,did he declare an interest???
I was unfortunate enough to be in a bar which was invaded by a gang of Hooray Henrys and the odd Henrietta late in the evening. They all had to talk loudly and at the same time in case the ordinary mortals didn't realise how important they were.
Unable to avoid the loud "conversations" it soon becaame apparent that they were in fact a gang of disgruntled local councillors and they were discussing the meeting they had just left. I loked round for the Boy Wonder and saw him with Big Brudder and Ma.
The company was dominated by an alpha-male who wanted us all to know what a character he was by being louder than all the rest and using the F-word at least once in every sentence.
I sat back and waited for the fireworks. Here I was in the presence of someone who had deleted a post from a board he moderated because the writer used an obscenity (actually it was the adjective "bitchy") now he found himself in a room where someone was repeatedly effing and blinding in front of his mother.
Competition Time. What do you think he did or said?

PS My evening was nicely rounded off by a little old lady who had watched the proceedings carefully. I wondered if she had been offended by what she had heard. I was wrong As I left she pointed at the gang at the bar and said to me, "You know who they are, don't you?"
I said, "Yes"
She said, They're a load of F****** W****** that's who they are."
Made my night.
As an echo Vicar to your tale. I was in the planning office at Weeley three or so years ago and a very obnoxious large man came in and when he saw about five people queuing for service he became very irate and started banging the counter, generally behaving in an aggressive manner, eventually the woman serving came out and he let of a strip indicating he was in a hurry and finished of with "I am a f****** councillor".
This beast was ushered out of the room, everybody exchanging knowing glances.
Age about fifty eight (now about 61 'ish) height about six feet.

I tell you what, as i represent the residents of the area where i live..(not, not an effing Cllr.)....i think it would be great fun going to watch our elected one cell`s performing.......
I have heard that camera phones not only pick up voices very well, but pictures also............lol..............
Do you recon that if i went dressed as Captain Invinceable..ta..daah...
i would be recognised............lol...
What I find rather worrying re the Vicars post is that they were discussing a meeting in front of the public in a very public place.
Doesn't bode well for confidentiality, does it?

My wife made the point that if a gang of 18-year-olds walked into a bar and behaved like that, they would have been asked to leave.
Anyway.
You've picked up on a point I omitted.
There were comments like, "Did you see (named gentleman councillor)? He couldn't keep his eyes off (named lady councillor) , He was staring at her all night."
Another was, "When I get home tonight I'm going to google her and get all I can on her. Then I'll sort things properly."
All of this was delivered at full volume and couldn't be missed by anyone in the pub. I was impressed by the sheer arrogance of people who are so important that they didn't feel the need to look over their shoulders to see who might be listening.
In Victorian times the gentry used to speak in French in front of the servants to avoid problems like this. You don't get the saame quality of toff as you used to.
Although I am not a lover of the Conservatives I was appalled at the way an unholy alliance was suddenly formed to fly in the face of accepted practice and stitch them up to keep them away from power. More so as my chosen "Independant" candidate is one of the ABC gang
However now I have seen the behaviour of some of the councillors they are protecting us from I am beginning to think it was notsuch a bad thing after all.
And ,how many are in it just for the self promotion ??.In the ward where I live we have two councillors.One of them being a Conservative ,the other is Labour and Co-Op.
In the run up to the elections ,we didn't even clap eyes on the chappie who was a Con.Just a leaflet through the door claiming all he was going to do....what have we heard from him since getting his position of power ?.....diddly squit ,thats it ,zilch ,nothing.
The other chap WALKED his ward ,knocked on doors ,spoke to the locals ,asked them what they wanted and has quietly gone about his business and IS sorting out the problems ,keeps us up to date with whats going on and we DON'T see his face plastered across the papers with stupid claims and silly stunts.
Now I don't belong to any particular party and no-one could ever say I was pro Labour or Con .
I just find it strange how one of our councillors seems to be missing......
Bet he was in the pub too........
Do these stupid people not realise that the public know who they are ,they make the mistake of having their mugs splattered all over the local rag and then think they can sit in a PUBLIC bar ,slagging off people ,swearing and airing what should be their PRIVATE veiws on other folk who are not there to defend themselves .....do they not think we know who they are ....shame on them ...they should remember they are PUBLIC servants elected by us and should be held reponsible for their actions....decent human beings and citizens ....think not!!!!
