Despite inauspicious beginnings I have grown to rather like Twitter. In addition to following Babergh’s news on the site, and also Boris Johnson (who recently described himself as ‘a toenail on the body politic’), plus Conservative Home and the Los Angeles Times, I have recently started to follow a wonderful website called ‘Glum Councillors’.
Their aim is to find and publish pictures of Councillors looking glum while investigating evils of society such as holes in the road, noisy neighbours, or, as in the picture above, bad smells.
It must be the aim of all elected representatives to avoid appearing on this site! If you want to have a laugh at councillors’ expense go to:
