coun Martyn Bolt showing his look of nimby disapproval to motherfucking housing developer perpetrators.

there's a lad who's been in a couple of gritty Play for Todays

I suppose a big part of being a local councillor is maintaining your serious/reproachful look, can't have a "Local A+E to be closed" headline and then a pic of councillor doing Roger Moore raised eyebrow spoof!

Tory councillors maybe do a thumbs-up cheesy grin tho

(From upthread) This is surely not a local councillor but in fact Saturday Kitchen heartthrob (and favourite of my mother - supplanting John Nettles in her affections), James Martin?

Why he is squatting by a pothole in Glasgow with a rolled up Evening Times in his hand, I have no idea.

sourcing fresh local shellfish

If it isn't then that local councillor looks even more like James Martin than dog latin looks like Jamie Oliver.

his look of nimby disapproval

Even if it wasn't an acronym, nimby would still be the perfect adjective for that fella.

Tom D, my mother is also a fan of James Martin.

my ex loves him madly

scandalous over-staffing at Watford council

This thread never fails to deliver.

the blurriness and weird framing of the second one there is taking it close to 'cursed images' territory imo

yes definitely, gives it an "any time in the last 40 years" quality

I think it was shot recently and the guy on the right is the ghostly apparition of a former councillor - the pothole in question having been there since 1953.

paging dmac: what's up with yerman councillor brian murphy then, he seems... agitated

Sharia Law is operating in Ireland and most of the political class either do not know or do not care. It is a subversion of our legal system

— Cllr Brian Murphy (@brianmurphycllr) September 5, 2017

The Left hate their culture, they hate Western civilization, they hate Christianity, they want to destroy social order, and unleash anarchy.

— Cllr Brian Murphy (@brianmurphycllr) August 30, 2017

The criminal justice system in Ireland is too lenient. We are far too soft on crime, our Judges sometimes act like apologists for criminals

— Cllr Brian Murphy (@brianmurphycllr) August 30, 2017

Hmmm

I'll look into it.

Likely this is a career move, we tend to spot what's coming down the line from the yanks or across the water and the enterprising local politician, dressmaker, restauranteur, decorator and hairdresser will make it their business to be ahead of this important curve of cultural impetus

please do report back, this seems like an avenue of investigation worthy of yr time

finds current legal system too lenient but also dislikes sharia law. the goldilocks of jurisprudence.

Councillor Alan Strickland's smiling face of gentrification pic would make a good Xmas card.

This is the guy who got his arse kicked by Aditya Chakrabortty on the Sunday Politics yesterday?

... which you wouldn't have seen if you don't live in London.

Yes I saw it on twitter this morning, he is a real piece of work!

I know Ian Paisley jr. is an MP and so not eligible for this thread, but presumably some of those people are local councillors

Hutts were a large slug-like sentient species who were native to the planet Nal Hutta. They were well known as galactic gangsters whose Grand Hutt Council controlled the Hutt Clan crime syndicate. One famous Hutt was the crime lord Jabba, who ruled a massive criminal empire from his palace on Tatooine.

bit unfair to the hutts tbh
