THIRTY Bristol City Council bosses – all members of the ‘Change Board’, responsible for overseeing a council-wide cuts programme – deliberately withheld from councillors and the public a £30 million LOSS in the 2016 – 17 financial year.
Their actions – at the very least – are GROSS MISCONDUCT and they should all be SACKED. Not least because while they were keeping their huge financial loss from us, they were also engineering pay rises for themselves of up to TWENTY PER CENT on the basis of their exceptional ‘TALENT‘!
They may also have committed a CRIME. In what other line of work can you deliberately engage in false accounting and not have committed a serious offence?
Today we name these thirty shameless CROOKS still earning huge sums of money at our expense. And The BRISTOLIAN says THEY MUST ALL GO and GO NOW.

How long such corruption?
Not so long back the council paid residents in southville £1000 for thier houses, and although they moved them into alternative flats/houses, they wer’nt rent free, this was for a proposed bridge/ring road to go through and above southville, however, the road did’nt happen, and the council kept those houses, and even resold them instead of handing them back.
I wont go into the ludicrous traffic planning dept, however the aspect of parking is a shambles and money making racket with no recourse for tappeal, as they seem to follow the same principles of power abuse, over people, as happens so often in parliment itself.
and is it all forgotten, No not by myself or by many elderly residents in my area.
this is not right
