WHERE’S THE GRATITUDE?


One of the major drawbacks of having a high political and entrepreneurial profile is that the public can sometimes expect too much from you. Take for example my chum and prospective parliamentary candidate (grrr!), Stinker Milburn.

Last week Stinker (in his own time I must say) organized a ward surgery for Cleawood and East Bilburn. Sadly, due to the fact that he had no access to the Mayor’s limo and with lots of more worthy things to do, he was 25 minutes late. Sadly, the rabble that had turned up were a bit miffed, moaning on about “lives to lead”, “jobs to do” and in one case, “children to pick up”.

This episode shows that it is impossible to make some people happy. They should be grateful that Stinker actually decided to hold a surgery, never mind whining on about the fact he was late.

The great unwashed must realize that as members of the electorate, their job is to serve their public representatives, not the other way round!
