After reading Friday’s edition of the Reading Labour Pravda, it would seem that our local politicians have been very busy beating one another up & supporting worthy causes.
The Fat Controller jibe about Andrew Cumpsty was a bit rich coming from a man who bears a remarkable resemblance to Rasputin the Mad Monk.
Meanwhile, Rob Wilson, Isobel Ballsdon and Richard Willis are all regulars in the news for working on behalf of the people who voted for them and of late new boy Jamie Chowdhary has been making his presence felt, to the great discomfort of Mrs Doubtfire & the rest of the Stalinist cult down at Redinski Square.
However, this week we see a full column in the letters section from Abbey Ward Labour Councillor Mohammed Ayub (better known as the invisible man) on the
NI 35 issue.
Of course my first question is: who helped write this letter? Damien McBride? Or maybe they called in good old Mr Kim from Pyongyang to advise on this one.
In any case, this letter proves my point. Our little red friends down at the Stalin Centre are hell bent on stirring up racial tensions in this town so as to have an excuse for the creation of their very own Stasi (for the uninformed: name of the former East German Secret Police ).
And if this was not enough, good old Cllr Ayub appears once again in the same edition of the Pravda. This time in a photograph with a local residents group trying to reopen the Jolly Anglers Pub.
Wow!! Signing a letter, being photographed and all this in the same week! He’ll need a well earned rest after that!
However, Mohammed was not the only one trying to latch on to the sad plight of the Jolly Anglers. It would seem that Cllr Bet Tickner also got out her map of Reading, located Abbey ward and managed to find the pub just in time for the photo opportunity. Except for a bit of shopping at the Oracle, I think it’s the first time she has been seen in Abbey all year.
Another absentee politician trying to attract votes on the back of this now famous Newtown pub is Labour PPC Anneliese ( Dodgy ) Dodds. Now Martin Salter is standing down, I understand that Dodgy may well be allowed to pay a visit to Reading on the strict understanding that she doesn’t open her mouth.
Finally we cannot forget ( falling around in laughter as he writes ) Reading’s best political joke, Cllr Epps. Yes, he too made the Jolly Angler’s photo shoot and has now decided to conduct a pub survey, which looks like being this week’s project for the Liberals. As with most Epps inspired ideas , he will soon realise that this will still not get him the votes he needs to beat Rob Wilson and he will try and latch on to some other cause in the hope of at least retaining his deposit. Has he ever thought of another career, like being captain of the Titanic?
Well unless the Prime Mentalist does a Bob Mugabe on us, both General & Local Elections are less than a year away, looks like we are in for the usual fun and games.
