Changing Of The Guard

George one of our associates informs us that Royston/Wardieburn held it’s AGM on Tuesday of this week. George tells us that some of the positions have changed hands,and we note with interest that the chairperson has stood down after less than a year in office. The secretary also stepped down and the treasurer as well. We don’t think they all stood down to spend more time with their families,and Pilton  sucks smells an air of mischief making in some of this. We tried contacting a couple of members without luck and it seems no-one is willing to tell us the real reasons for their departures.

We already know that there was real friction at the meeting before the AGM,again we cannot get anyone to comment which tells a story in itself. Royston/Wardieburn community council had been growing in stature in recent months and had taken a high profile in a number of community issues. Therefore it is strange indeed that office bearer roles would change so dramatically when all seemed to be going well,if it’s not broken don’t fix it.

We feel there is a lot more to this than meets the eye and we would not be suprised to learn that a certain councillor had her sticky fingers all over this,since according to her own blog site she seemed less than enthusiastic about the council. Could it be that sour grapes where in order as she was not getting the limelight.

We hope Royston/Wardieburn Community Council continues to do well,let us all hope that the sticky fingers of local politics can be kept out of it.
