Mandeville Development
I opened up to page 6 of the Northern Outlook today only to find a reply to my last Neighbourly post staring back at me from the page! Imagine my surprise - the Outlook are trolling me! So, if they are following my posts then they are aware of the ‘two dropped shoes’ - yet no follow up article. It is strange times indeed when a paper decides to make itself part of the story – how far down does this rabbit hole go? In summary we’ve had; a developer (who’s not the real developer) present a plan that they don’t intend to build; a council who tie themselves up in knots clearing the way for an RC that they are too scared to approve – so pass the ‘hot potato’ on to an unsuspecting Commissioner; and now a paper whose bias reporting suggests to us that all is well and that there is nothing to see here. Well, umm, ok …..like, wow! If some people haven’t lost their jobs by the time this tale is told in full I’ll be very impressed indeed. Personally, if any of you worked for me I would have fired you already, lol. You guys really suck at this sort of thing, eh. Oh, and editor – I’ve got your next front page for ya – copy this (ha ha ha ha):
