Conservative Councillor Peter Jones Mill Street Obstruction the truth

Yesterday I highlight a serious obstruction in Mill Street created by Conservative Councillor Peter Jones.
This prompted a comment that from one of his supporters which was a complete lie.
The bench is for sale as you can see from the above photograph is has a hefty price tag £450.
The bench is displaying warning notices, this is not good enough as I said before how does a blind person see such notices.

Its very clear this person like so many other local Conservatives have nothing better to do than keep suggesting everything I say is mad or a lie.

I don't really have a clue about politics, but I am sure we should be arguing about more serious issues?

But then again it appear Rutland Conservatives appear to be only interested in themselves and determined to stamp out anyone who speaks out of turn.

I must say, I am not condoning the theft, but in my view the dirty white swan that hung outside Swans Antiques in Oakham did lower the tone of the street.

On Monday I thought Conservative Councillor Peters Jones had started to smarten up Mill Street as the Swan had gone.

Now I find out it was stolen and the theft was treated as a major incident by Inspector Monks of Leicestershire Police.

The theft was noticed Sunday morning and operation MnonkeySwan swung into action.

Within in hours an elite team of Oakham Police officers were sent out to all surrounding area's on a hunt for the swan, within hours after a tip off, the swan was recovered in a garden not far from the shop.

Inspector Monks is quoted in today's Leicester Mercury saying "arrests are imminent" Well done Mr Monks its a pity Toots Sweet never received the same service when their sign was stolen.

Luckily Councillor Peter Jones arranged for the tax payer to fit one of those expensive town centre cameras outside his shop. (this was pointed out by other traders)

Mr Monks should remember the police are meant to serve the whole public, not just Councillors and their chums!

what is wrong with the Leicester Mercury giving this so much space in your paper. I am guessing the Rutland Times and Mercury will make this front page news this week.

Free publicity for the Councillors failing business? (The man in the photo in today's Leicester Mercury is his son, why his sons have different surnames, I don't know, I was told it was something to do with them attending Oakham School and Jones being common?)

Nothing published about his cuts: at least 75 more staff to loose jobs at Rutland County Council and the disgusting increase in home care charges a 100% increase.

£3.3 million pounds of cuts and all Rutland Radio and the Council website says: The Council did not increase council tax! and that was only due to the bung from central government.
