The post you are reporting:
For the life of me I cannot understand why our local politicians find it necessary to squabble and bicker with one another whilst the playgrounds are left untouched. If consensus needs to be agreed before replacement kit can be organised, FGS stop blaming one another and find a way to resolve it. Whitfield managed to upgrade their play equipment (and even add to it), so why can't Dover?
I can confirm Roger's statement that play equipment is very expensive, having seen first hand how much the new equipment cost at Whitfield Rec. So, what if it is? The rest of the country seem to be able to provide facilities for their kids, so (again) why can't Dover?
I believe that Party Politics is hampering any progress in this town. The politicians seem to enjoy fighting among one another more than righting wrongs. They all seem to find Vic laughable because he's not one of them, but at least Vic wants things done. This pathetic in-fighting just detracts from the issues at hand, like ensuring Dover doesn't become a third world enclave in a country so badly managed we have become, as Barry says on another thread, S.T.U.P.I.D. If we have, it's because of stupid, dogmatic politicians on both sides.
