Graham: Did you discover quite how Cllr Austin had failed as chairman of the regulatory committee? He was re-appointed in July 2010, chaired the rest of the meeting for a little less than 38 minutes when nothing at all was swimmingly accomplished despite the lack of specialist legal advice and then apparently did nothing else in that capacity until July 2011 when he was replaced. What had he done to deserve the order of the boot or the "thanks for the work (sic) that he had undertaken" recorded in the minutes.

Unless his cardinal sin was an unforgivable failure to secure appointment as deputy leader of the council's Tory group after a little local difficulty.

Why can't Alec Robertson find a more sensible way of dishing out dosh than summoning 12 councillors from as far away as Torpoint, Saltash, Looe and Helston to a meeting with so little content that it's stitched up in 8 minutes? If they'd forgone the tiresome necessity of a meeting they could have given even more dosh maybe almost as much again to Alec's deputy. In parliament all this is managed much better.

Used to be just "jobs for the boys"

Little has changed, just a little less gender specific.
