MARGARET EDWARDS
11 Apr 2006 02:47:03 -0700
I refer to Mabon Danes idiotic statement about my comments to the
press. I write as Margaret Edwards (stating my full home address,
which is well known) with the full agreement of the Press to avoid any
possible confusion between my personal comments and that of my husband
- too difficult for you to understand ...

Domestic rateable values
Mon, 10 Apr 2006 14:22:29 +0100
Is there any way I can check the water board are using the correct rateable value of
my house? The rateable value seems very high compared with similar properties.
I phoned the District Valuation Office - who said they no longer hold domestic
rateable values, and told me Ofwat have them. Phoned Ofwat who told m ...

Lib Dems handing out sweeties: mass arrests expected
4 Apr 2006 14:28:18 -0700
The Lib Dem leadership are asking their loyal troops to act like pied
pipers, handing sweets to children on council estates in exchange for
the children delivering the leaflets for them. If any election return
include jelly babys and milky ways from a Lib Dem elections officer you
can bet the Lib Dems have been ...

H5N1 Burial Arrangements
1 Apr 2006 17:40:22 -0800
I understand local authorities are in charge of the burials and local
emergencies. Has local authorities got the reserves and the central
government funding for mass burials, which will soon happen when H5N1
mutates into human form? The present virus kills 50% of victims and 90%
of young people under 20 years of ...

Capping
Fri, 31 Mar 2006 12:11:05 GMT
Interestingly, my council (Medway) has been threatened with
"capping" for its "excessive" Council Tax increase of 5.5%.
It is interesting because:
(a) the government funding settlement is some six million pounds
lower than what Ministers have clearly stated (in writing) should be
our settlement;
(b) they ...
