Does the recent issue of Priorities stand up to the test

On part of getting the Town Council back to Quality Town Status is getting the communications right. The current Town Council propaganda sheet just isn't doing the job. The test is:
In the last issue, still to be added to the website, the Town Council had the Town Mayor's usual splurge about how he and the Town Council are raising money for his nominated charities. A bit on the back about who the Town Councillors are and apart form a couple of adverts for the Priory Centre that is just about it.

The Mayor's charities aren't the Town Councils and there is a question mark over how much it costs to raise the small amount of money that is raised. This part of the Mandatory section for regaining Quality Town Status is as far off as ever.

District Wide - another lost opportunity!

I recently received another propaganda magazine from Conservative run HDC. Reading through the good news magazine I would have problems finding anything wrong at HDC. No mention of the deficit or the £6.1 million of cuts to come. No mention of any strategy over how these cuts will be implemented.

Of course the Conservative run HDC wants its residents to live in a dreamworld where everything will be alright.  So only good news is in and all the bad news out is left out!
