Lord Bonkers aka Guardian journalist Jonathan Calder was shocked
enough to include an RCC press release in his satirical blog. Since he
lives in Market Harborough one wonders if he will be arrested by Leicester
Police in the near future. RCC has become a notorious Council. You
have appeared in Private Eye twice within the last year, the Spectator and
the BBC have turned their attention to this Council. Lord McNally
prevented you trying to over-turn Derbyshire v Times newspapers case
law. Brandon Lewis MP, the Communities Minister, has criticised your
decision to fund individual officers’ private actions against elected
members. Each cunning plan you have devised has mired you in
controversy and opprobrium. The over-payment of senior staff,
mishandling of expenses procedures and underpayment of junior staff has
excited a plethora of online news stores in the Accounting press. No one
has done this to you. You have done it to yourselves.
