Sounds to me like you are the one doing the Raving.

Its not the pools that I object to.It was the way that the decision was reached and the associated ramifications.

The Labour party has been done no harm in this affair in fact as far as I can see the Party has been conspicuous in its lack of balanced opinion and therefore no one can possibly complain.

Ranting and raving I believe you said.Hardly. Had I wanted to do that you would have used a much more direct tone.

Sour grapes.Not at all.That is an expression that is always wheeled out
when someone dose not agree with a general consensus( as is their right).

In the long run the Mayor made a decision and so be it.He could not possibly satisfy everyone.All I hope now is that the Mayors fund is not hi-Jacked for Louise House and that certainly looks to be on the cards.Once again I may be proved right where this matter is concerned.We could end up with more about turns than on a 50 square yard parade ground.
Anyway if I have offended any ones precious susceptibilities regarding this matter I humbly apologise.I dont believe that the last has been heard regarding the pools fiasco and that not everyone will emerge from this matter smelling of roses.
