  Interesting one John..
  which prompts me to bang on a bit further about the suitability of some people for the task.
  
  A few years ago, several now I suppose, on a previous incarnation of this forum, there was a discussion on the main council elections. At the time there was a Labour administration under Peter Wells in control.
  
  I remember that the Conservative ploy at the time and I think it was originally voiced by our very own media star Roger W when he said that the Labour administration had been useless because between them they hadnt got an ounce of previous business experience or business acumen...so as a consequence had accomplished nothing. The Tories on the other hand had considerably better business experience. He was naturally enough backed up by the other forumite Tories.
  
  Indeed that point rammed home to the wider populace and people began to wonder if it was indeed true. The Conservatives of course won that election, Peter Wells even lost his seat, and these Conservatives have been in control ever since under the guiding hand of Paul Watkins.
  
  But...has it made a discernable difference. Have the Tories been any better. Have they been able to put this "vastly better business experience" to use. Do you see a difference in the High St??
