Quite right.  I’d already worked that out but what has that to do with the price of eggs? My response was because I didn’t and still don’t understand why he quoted my post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Jeffrey Shaw   90 #87 Posted August 31, 2021 Another point: who actually owns the City Hall? If SCC: yes, they'd have a say in lettings and- effectively- a veto. If not SCC: no, they'd have no say (what with not being owners). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Jeffrey Shaw   90 #89 Posted August 31, 2021 The website cited does not make clear whether Sheffield City Trust is the owner or just runs the City Hall on behalf of SCC.  "In partnership with SCC" does not, I guess, mean literally that SCT and SCC are partners under the Partnership Act 1890 as amended; so what does it mean at law?

As I understand it, any council is made up of representatives voted in by residents to manage a city or town on behalf of the residents and it is actually the residents who own the properties etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Anna B   1,414 #92 Posted August 31, 2021 Actually I really think the council, you and me, snowflakes and everyone else has much more to worry about than if Roy Chubby Brown does a show at the City Hall... And with the state of the world and all that's happening, I do mean much, much more.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Write to your councillor, tell them you won't vote for them unless a person you don't want to watch gets to tell jokes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
