No wonder my council tax has hiked
« on: 15 March 2020, 16:16:13 »

Due to the HS2 white elephant, the local parish council has spent the last 3 months fencing off all green areas to stop the thieving, disgusting "traveller community" who will be doing all the work.



Clearly the parish is expecting pikeys to become a significant issue. So when the brainwashed come out and say the construction will pump loads of money into the economy, you know its all 'dangle berries'.


So not only are we all putting in thousands to build (and more thousands each annually to run it) this pointlessness, our parish - and I imagine several others along the route - will get hiked council taxes.

Great. Pillocks. Well, corrupt pillocks.

Don't think that bit of fencing will stop them. :)

My council tax has hiked as well. Nothing to do with white elephants. Just greedy passengers on the gravy train.

Can't remember exactly, but I've had our bill and I think it's a 2.9% rise.

If they move stuff to get on common land, it becomes trespass, and the ol' bill can move them on straight away. If they don't, you have to go through a 3 week legal process to move the scum on. Same applies to footpaths etc

That's why you are currently getting farmers parking scrap cars across all the gateways.


I know a lass who works for an adjoining County Council, in Gypsy Services.  This whole department is not about assisting the pikeys, but moving the lazy, disgusting, thieving pikeys on. So even more tax payers money. Great.

Down here in Kent there has always been the "travelers problem", but we all survive.  That type of fencing is common and is basically to keep stupid drivers parking their vehicles on the grass outside their houses and churning it all up!

Nothing to do with travelers or HS2! ::) ::) :P

As for Council Tax hike: I am facing an increase of..................................just £3 per month, and that includes extra money for the Kent Police service :D  :y ;)

The upside is that if you have a few loose roof tiles or a crumbling driveway  the pikeys will be able to assist 😀😃😄

Funny how councils suddenly find money to do things like that during March.  ::)  ;)

Despite apparently having no money for social needs for the rest of the year, round here traffic calming blocking schemes tend to appear in March, village gateways, chicanes, etc  >:(

That’s all down to the complexities of their budgets, and spending the money left in them before April :D ;)

Specific areas have specific budgets, and they never overlap.

Or - after all the pension contributions were safely in the bank, they found they had a few quid left to put up a bit of fencing.
I would abolish most of them along with much of the rest of the state machine.
