The Hokey-Cokey Council Meeting

Last night was the Annual General Meeting of the Council. It lasted half an hour. We can't deny we found it highly amusing. The agenda was pretty straightforward. They all just turned up to vote and confirm the different Cabinet positions, committee chairs, etc that were being dished out. In other words, it was the night many were officially confirmed in their stupidly high salary part-time jobs.

Greenwich Unison were outside shouting and protesting about their pay cuts whilst the snouts in the trough munched away on hundred of thousands of pounds worth of "expenses" by show of hands. It was a bit like the hokey-cockey in fact...
"They put their left hand up, their left hand down, up, down, up down, shake it all around. They take the easy money and they spend it quick! Even though inspectors say they're shit!"
We'd like to thank our below minimum wage teenage photocopy boy for coming up with the above jingle.

Thought pimply faced youth had been replaced by a bag of frozen peas? (post April 19th 2007)

Did he get a reprive due to his lyrical talents? Or is this an entirely different underpaid youf?

Did the peas not work out so they had to be replaced? I think we should be told

The peas turned a bit mushy and were starting to drip water on the floor, so we fired them.
