People complain when there’s a perceived lack of transparency. People complain when there is obvious transparency. Good grief! “They” aren’t trying to “get another one”. It’s not about votes - that has already happened and the result was overwhelmingly in favour of a playpark somewhere on the lawn. These presentations will relay the results of the Lawn Working Groups hard work in fine ...
They are trying to get a consensus on what the future of the lawn might be given that the earlier proposals, from the previous consultation, proved contentious. Public notice about dates, times and locations of this consultation on page 27 of today's Gazette plus an article on page 4.
I thought they had already had a consultation!!!!!!!! SO for what reason are they now trying to get another one. Is there a similar situation regarding BREXIT where they had a ref, it didn't go the way that some would have liked and are still trying to get another ref. When there is an election, most accept the result, what is so different to the two situations mentioned above? Why can't ...

May, cynically and cowardly, announced her decision yesterday just as parliament breaks up for its long summer recess thus protecting her from a rebellion. She's bought herself a bit of time, but it won't save her political skin, come September the knives will be out and it really will be the end of her leadership. It will be good riddance to the lying, deceitful piece of manure.
Shouldn’t those Brexiteers moaning about May’s choice of advisors, erm, “get over it”? And, like I read yesterday, I assume that they’ll be up in arms about official plans to introduce eye tests for drivers who have reached a certain age? As, of course, only the original result ever counts...
I think the Prime Minister understands things only too well. And I think she has made a decision based on that understanding. You may not like that decision for your reasons and I may not like it for mine. But nontheless she has still made a decision. Civil servants are by definition unelected. What they do is give advice. Politicians decide whether or not to take that advice.
So Teresa May is now in control of Brexit with the advice from the unelected civil servant Olly Robbins. Does the Prime Minister understand anything? God help us. Her last choice of advisers Nick Timothy and Fiona Hill were kicked out for giving bad advice and lost a large number of seats for her party. If she can't choose her advisors more wisely how can she run brexit?More to the ...
'Taking back control' is a relative term. Just how much control do you think this country, in reality, has, and will have, when negotiating from its ever increasing position of weakness. I suppose the next stage in this whole sorry saga will be when the division between the Protectionist Brexiters and the Free Market Brexiters comes to the fore. Still, not to worry as I'm sure ...
The irony is that these Brexiteers want us to go back in time to 50 years ago, but will have to wait another 50 years for that to happen! And the vast majority of them of course will be long long gone by then...
