Where IS Sandwell "Leader"?

Mystery surrounds the current whereabouts of bent Labour Sandwell Council's Leader, Red Yvonne Davies. In yet another exclusive this blog recently revealed that Sadwell's Corbynite mouthpiece was very busy spouting left-wing claptrap but had sold her house in the sh*thole Borough and bought one in Herefordshire. This would have precluded her from being on the bent Council (unless she was like the scumbag offspring of - then - Cllrs Roger and Linda Horton, Lying Lucy) and so she has temporarily RENTED a property near the soon to be destroyed Brandhall Golf Club instead:

Now fair play - Red Yvonne has had some significant health problems of late so that it is appropriate for her to self-isolate. However, the rest of us are getting by with Skype, Zoom etc. And, bizarrely, the website now shows the corrupt comrades have no less than THREE deputy leaders!

But Red Yvonne is keeping up a steady stream of "we're all in together" b*llocks and so questions are being asked widely whether she is actually here at all? Due to lockdown The Skidder cannot investigate directly and, for reasons unknown, The Leader has refused to say whether she is in the Borough or not. Why? Some Councillors have suggested that she is not and a local has checked her rented property on three separate occasions and found no sign of life and no car present.

Any right-thinking person wants to get out of Sandwell if possible. Leaving aside the current Covid 19 crisis folk are statistically likely to have a shorter life living in the socialist dump and a much shorter "healthy" life given the p*sspoor public health record of Labour after a mere 46 (FORTY SIX) YEARS of failure!

This is from bent Sandwell Council's own figures* compared to the rest of England:

Male Life Expectancy -2.4 years

Female Life Expectancy -1.7 years

The numbers are much worse for "healthy life expectancy":

Male -4 years

Female -4.6 years!

The Council have had to admit that, "on average, a woman in Sandwell can expect to live for 23 YEARS with illness or disability, for men this is nearly 18 years."

We have seen that Yvonne is following the lead of the previous "leader" Steve "Squealing" Eling who couldn't stop metaphorically jerking-off about the delights of Sandwell whilst living for much of his time a long way away in the pretty Derbyshire village of Fritchley. (Incidentally, the Skidder's eyes and ears also report no sighting of The Squealer in Sadders during the current crisis! Anyone with different info please contact - details below.)

The problem with Labour politicians particularly is that they do love to lecture us. And any criticism of the bent Council at the moment is met by an attack from Red Yvonne that they have "better things to do" during the crisis (without specifying what those things actually are.) Yet in a display of rank hypocrisy she herself is maintaining a social media bombardment on the alleged Covid failings of the Tory Government!

Yesterday she sparked outrage with a tweet on her "official" Twitter account about her knitting prowess - the Sadders equivalent of "fiddling while Rome burns." But piling Pelion on Ossa she also started a new hashtag #stayathomesandwell and this has caused a number of folk to ask again - is she actually here or taking the f*cking p*ss? People are getting very angry about this and so here's a nice simple question for Cllr Davies - where have you been living for the last four weeks? That's an easy enough question isn't it?

Clearing the Air

I mention life expectancy above and a major contibutor to ill-health and death in Sadders is air pollution. At a time when the Labour Party is destroying every bit of green space it can in Sandwell the WHOLE Borough has been declared an Air Quality Management Area because Nitrogen Dioxide levels exceed 40 microgrammes per cubic metre.

There has been much controversy recently about alleged attempts to fiddle the stats. As the protesters against the proposed concrete sleeper factory next to housing at Bescot discovered, the testing stations are deliberately NOT being placed in pollution hotspots. Clearly places like M6 J9 and M5 J2/Birchley Island are areas where measurements certainly SHOULD be taken.

The corrupt comrades are also ignoring air pollution in planning applications. In particular such was the rush to destroy Londonderry Fields for the new multi-million pound white elephant pool that no proper air assessment was done before the matter came to a vote! (Incidentally Red Yvonne and her cronies are so desperate to get this financial disaster finished in time the workers have been forced to continue throughout the Covid 19 crisis whatever the risk to themselves and their families when many other construction sites were closed down.)

Bizarrely, we are all aware how air quality has improved during the Covid lockdown but all folk in Sadders must make sure that the sleazy "socialists" do not attempt to doctor the air pollution figures downwards and claim that air quality is now much improved when things are likely to be as bad as ever when we all return to "normal". Keep 'em peeled folks!

Man's Luck Ran Out!

Whilst Red Yvonne knits, the Council slides into chaos. In a recent post I wrote about the departure of Director Amy Harhoff after only a short time trying to ruin her CV by putting Sandwell on it. I also disclosed the suspension of Darren Carter, the Council's head finance guy - which is still surrounded in secrecy - at this critical time (not least because the end of March was also the end of the Council's financial year.)

And now Carter's big pal Richard Luckman - the widely reviled head of "Human Resources" - has left without notice. Skidder sources say he was asked to leave "with immediate effect".

People go on about me commenting on senior employees - many of whom are on over £100k per annum - and some feel I am too harsh on some of them (I think the excat opposite.) The fact is that NO-ONE I have spoken to over the last five years had a good word to say for Luckman. The only people who rated him were the trade union reps with whom he had a close relationship (!!!!) and, seemingly, the aforesaid Carter.

One particular story which seems incredible even by Sandwell standards (info please) is the Luckman had a bell which he used to ring to summon his suffering minions to surround him and listen to his pearls of wisdom! Oh yeah, oh yeah! Is someone pulling my leg again?

(All info on Carter and Luckman issues welcomed. Incidentally, I am told that Luckman's department also spent a lot of our money kitting out their office at Providence Place in grand style and info on that also welcome.)

WBE lash Lidl

Oh how times change! Not long ago Inane Elaine Costigan couldn't get enough of Lidl! Now a West Brom East Labour senior official has publicly put the boot in on the German grocers and their sick-pay policy. Lidl are a major employee up Friar Park way and many are relying on them heavily during the current crisis. So come on comrades - decide which side of the fence you're on "lol"! (PS is Zorro standing on a box in this pic?)

And finally, how the Sadders news might have appeared long ago:

FLOCKING FCENES - LABOUR LAY WAFTE FANDWELL

YE ANGLO-FAXON CHRONICLES - FANDWELL EDITION

In ye year of Our Lord 1974 on ye Day of Fools ye ferfs of Tipton, Wednesbury and divers burghs did hold a fhire-mote on ye hill top at Old Bury whereon the gathered did fwear blood-oaths to ye Fandwell Metropolitan Borough Council.

Aye but the elders of ye Council were all of one aged tribe known as ye people of Lab-our. And Lab-our did rob ye churls and beget much woe for Lab-our did lay wafte to Fandwell and bring forth great poverty. The folk of Lab-our even faileth to clear ye paths and heriditaments of ye shite of dogs.

And Lab-our did taxe ye vassals most heavily and even to the fqueaking of ye pips but did taketh ye treasure of ye peafants and fpunk it upon ye wall.

Ye mighty Leader, Red Yvonne, did rule from the Fhire that is Hereford and did decree that ye villeins of Fandwell pay mightily for Games and revels in a clearing of ye woods at the place that is called Fmeth-wick. But Red Yvonne did stop all ye trading in the Burgh as she railed mightily on ye social media against ye money-changers and ye takers of profit. Forfooth said she, ye poor must live in ye commune and fayeth they love ye Brother who is Big.

But ye vassals and bondservants did become idle and wafte their groats in ye alehouses and at the Brook of Lad and did payeth not Fandwell Council ye taxe and rente. And Red Yvonne, Danny the Millard and The Knight who is Alison did then tell ye peasants to give up their tithes and groats to Fandwell as a gifte. But ye churls were not frupid and payeth not ye gifte for they fwore that ye Council of Labour were a bunch of Cnuts!
