Dreaded double post.

Until recently Croydon Council had to rely on the local Croydon Advertiser Newspaper group to act as it's propaganda arm to provide positives stories to make residents feel good about their broken borough. Eventually though this task became to great for even the Advertiser so the Council were forced to set up their own monthly free sheet through which to propagate their drivel.

The latest edition of this taxpayer funded publication came out today with a front page that looks like this;



Beneath the headline
People power does the trick and the tag line Fed up with their local parks bad reputation, residents decided to do something about it the article talks about local residents coming together to address the security and facilities of an area of open ground right by my home. It then goes on to name certain streets and encourages people to undertake events and activities to see the area becomes a resource for all to use. In light of the recent break-ins, beatings and grave desecration's that have gone on it is very hard to read this article as anything other then a Croydon Council publication being used to incite violence and criminal behaviour.

For this reason it is very important that the obligations Croydon Council have to me are no longer described as a "taxpayer bailout". They are quite simply the fine and compensation that a criminal entity will have to pay as a punishment for it's crimes and as any judge will tell you the criminal does not get to choose it's punishment.
