Comment posted on ‘Purdah’ Danced into touch? by Stephen Mackenzie
Erm, both Vivien and Tony Dance are involved with the Friends of the Victoria Hall, and of course the revival of the Christmas lights.
Of course, that doesn’t mean I like them or their wacky property development antics, but I think in this case there was a legitimate reason for Vivien to be there.
And it’s up to the editor of the Advertiser to decide what to put on his front page.

…Sorry, that wasn’t nearly frothing or outraged enough, was it?

- A83 closed due to another landslide – now reopened
This is true; it was initially shown as a slip on Loch Fyne side just north of Inveraray.I note that TS are yet to master the spelling of the word “Arrochar”.
- A83 closed due to another landslide – now reopened
That photo looks like the slip is in a different place from normal. Can anyone confirm that? - A83: Is there a planning issue in Transport Scotland’s intent to revise the old military road below Rest and Be Thankful?
Is there a source for this story about naming the Rest? I was under the impression the naming was older than the era of the motor car…I once walked up the remains of the old road from Butterbridge, and it occurred to me that it would be a very worthwhile part of a long distance route/cycle route into Argyll.
- Transport Minister tells McGrigor A83 emergency route ready in November
Go for a walk… all you will hear in Glen Croe is traffic noise. And don’t forget it’s full of forestry. So it’s hardly unspoiled. So an appropriately designed road gallery would on the whole, be a benefit. I remain convinced that the best long term plan is to divert the trunk road away from that glen and that hill, though. - 10 Downing Street to fly Saltire with Union Flag tomorrow for Andy Murray

Perhaps Cllr Dance was confused between “not standing for election again” and “won’t be elected again”?

Perhaps Councillor Dance thinks that she’s one of the untouchable.

So, does this now mean that Cllr. Dance is barred from the election vote? If not, what was the point of the instruction by mrs L?

Or perhaps no one really gives a toss what Sally Loudon says.
By her own actions she has reduced the dignity and stature of her position as chief executive to the point where her credibility has disappeared and her authority is reduced to throwing snarling hissy fits at disgruntled junior employees.
So it is quite understandable when some of the rats ignore Captain Sally’s instructions to “form an orderly queue” and instead scramble for any advantage in order to grab a seat on the lifeboat.

I don’t think any of these people have any regard for the rules. They have been getting away with murder for so long, they think they are untouchable.

On the 13 April, during purdah, the dunoon paper had a picture of the photogenic! cllr marshall presenting a cheque to crossroads, but at an event some time before the ‘reporter’ had declined to take another councillors picture, and the accompanying article was in the same paper……….one rule for some eh? time to shake the lovely sally up, methinks.
