Keeping their heads down

As one of our regulars welcomed our return to the world wide web after the summer break, he commented that it seemed as though the bypass independents had been keeping their heads down and leaving little to comment about over the same period.

That does seem to be true.

We've noted that the deputy leader has been remarkably silent given his gaffe prone utterances of the party's early days which at times seemed to be making him a worthy challenger to the likes of that other famous deputy, John Prescott.
Perhaps the phrase "silence is golden is resonating" somewhere.

As golden as a mayoral chain.

But we also note attempts by the leader to put a glossy spin on the borough's non-investment in Icelandic banks.

But then, as things such as the Princess Royal Sports Arena and the party in the park demonstrate so well, the BBI needs no external help which it comes to pouring our council taxpayers money down the drain.
