Is the libel writ to Private Eye already in the post? I doubt it as this time he would have to dip into his own pocket to fund an action. But I’m sure Private Eye would relish the opportunity.

It's satisfying to those of us who have suffered at the hands of this absolutely rotten council and some of its rotten officers to see such a deserved reward, but something should be done about it by our Welsh Government. They should be next in the Shit Awards as their support allows this shitty lot to continue being rotten!!!

Maybe the good citizens of Carmarthenshire could crowd fund and get him a gold plated turd for his office.

I'm sure there are many who would be willing to donate ;-)

Does it have to be gold-plated, Anon@23.19? Just a brown plastic one would be quite enough!

Undoubtedly james still reads your blog and I guess he is apoplectic reading this and all the above.

I can imagine him getting more and more angry and no doubt exploding with rage - with shit everywhere.

The shit will certainly hit the fan then, if not already.

Anon 23.19 I like that - I like that a lot. It could be erected in the centre of Carmarthen and we could all hold a ceremony at it's uncovering.

I know firsthand how corrupt CCC are. They've disappeared a document they showed to be me at a site meeting which would prove they lied to me and exceeded their authority in order to secure an agreement from me. Therefore I refuse to transfer the land to them.

Flushed with success perhaps!

I think you've missed the point. Donations were implied more pre-plating ;-)

This is worthy of a official unveiling ceremony in the centre of Carmarthen
