I'd like to see the council use something similar on it's website to guage people's opinions on important issues. Not binding, but a public consultation. In this day and age of every council should have an simple and accessible open forum of some sort . Yes because those cant be manipulated whatsoever. In any case the Electoral Commission wouldnt allow it. Edited September 15, 2021 by HeHasRisen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I pay for some of the council’s business and I choose that we don’t waste my taxes having hundreds of pointless referenda. We elect councillors to make decisions, let them get on with it. What about the corrupt councillor from darnal still in recipe of a £816 bonus a month for special duties even thought he has been placed in gardner's leave and stepped aside and the cheek of labour council now asking for people to take voluntary redundancy to save money I'm sure they should all apply for jobs as clowns because they are running Sheffield Council like a circus Edited September 23, 2021 by Conshefsky Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I do know whataboutism when I see it. And I’ve seen it on this thread. If/when the character who calls himself “Conshevsky” gives us some details, I’ll be happy to pass an opinion. Until then, he’s just another passing troll . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
