Klaus Further

Penyffordd has had enough of Klaus as well as many other Flintshire county councillors. An area of the village that was plagued by anti social behaviour was cured when a gate which opened was put across a public foot path. Total cost £1000 to the resident next to the footpath. Money well spent no harm done.

Along comes Klaus ( someone must have told him). The gate has got to come down. A meeting with Cllr David Williams gets no where. This is no criticism of David. Shall we be polite and say David's blood pressure was raised somewhat. Outcome : the gate came down.

Here is the excellent County Cllr Carolyn Thomas of Treuddyn having difficulties with Klaus

Alison Halford provides the best analysis of the recent proceedings here.

Saltney of course have had 4 horrible years of Klaus. The end result being the recent enquiry into his conduct.

Klaus scraped through by 5 votes at the last county elections
Perhaps Cllr Bernie Attridge who gets in uncontested can pop down to Saltney and do a bit of canvassing for who ever stands against Klaus if he stands?

Bernie could become a county hero overnight. Eternally thanked by cllrs of all persuasions.

Will Klaus change? Those who have had dealings with Klaus will be amazed that he was reduced to a blubbering wreck at the enquiry. Perhaps Klaus could see his reason for existence going down the plug hole.

 Cllrs who will stand up when awkward questions need to be asked are essential ( we won't mention Penyffordd wine circle) Klaus over steps the mark though.

Perhaps there's a job for him being a storm trooper for the Ramblers Association. There's a lot of public footpaths and stiles that have been blocked or removed in Flintshire. I know a dozen to get him started. There's a women I know who has turned a footpath into a garden and a horse run with electrified fences in Llanfynydd .............

  1. Excellent post Colin and thanks for the link to PAWatcher, great stuff.
    High time for Klaus to go. Once a Cllr. puts his own agenda before the his ward, its time to shuffle off. Too many bullies in public office.

    Alison Halford is another example,this past year all her energies have gone into ousting Arnold Woolley as Leader. The hatred and vitriol directed at that man beggars belief. Once things become that personal a Cllr. should stand down, because they are not doing what they were voted in for. Her behaviour its not going to win her any votes this time around,
    neither will her stoic defence of Patrick Heesom, another rabid Councillor of the Klaus variety who has long since forgotten that he was voted in the serve the people, not the other way around.
    His case with the Ombudman is going to cost this County millions, a terrible waste of public money.
    If these Cllr's had to pay out of their own pockets they would think twice about running to the PSOW over every little scrap they have with colleagues.
    May cannot come quickly enough! This council is the worst!
    I had high hopes for David Williams, I hope he isn't going to be another Tom Jones in the making, time will tell...

  2. I have high hopes for David too even though he hates me. Chester Rd is due traffic calming to slow down the daily hoardes. It will not happen if David does not push. David ( and Cindy Hinds) have to remember that Chester Rd has become a major unpoliced short cut. What's good for me and other residents is also good for children and OAP's. I use Rossett as a good example.

    Tom Jones, Colin Bithell and their cronies should stand down.

    David has to realise that any misdemeanors such as allowing Tom Jones to stick the boot into Wine Circle will be fully reported.

    Tom who is also an Institute committee member may not have heard the last of his vindictiveness.

    Also Colin Bithell.

  4. It is very important to get traffic calming for Chester Road. As far as I can see, you are the only one who has cared enough about his community to have campaigned tirelessly for this Colin.

    It is to their shame that we never see David Williams, Colin Bithell or the saintly Tom Jones, give the speeding problems even a passing mention.
    David Williams needs to get out from under Tom's cloak and step up to the mark. I agree, if these poor excuse for Cllr's don't have the interest of Penyffordd at heart they should stand down.

  5. The stats are 3000 - 4000 vehicles a day.
    Densities are in the 15 vehicles a minute at times.
    Usually no traffic policing.
    The exception being Gosafe last week at 8 am
    First time in 5 years.

    Why do we have HGV through the village as a short cut?

    I think that answer is Cllr Tom Jones.
