Councillors expenses - a document of historical interest

Allowances

An interesting document for your perusal regarding councillors allowances in the borough of Tameside. A few years out of date, but still interesting and relevant when considering the recent letter by Cllr Ambler regarding his expenses.

Monies gone up since then pal.

The amount of money in that list is obscene. How come Cllr Ambler has £21k next to his name when he said in the paper he only claims £1000 per month?

You should be pleased you have people of such exceptional quality looking after your interests and they are worth every penny.

The list is means nothing. I'm not taking any political sides but the council is a £400 million business so keep it real. Don't forget the £1 million pound bonus for RBS chief

two wrongs do not make a right said...

Ok councillor in disguise@15.05, we believe you.

Love Tameside and Appreciate Your Councillors said...

They're worth every penny and more. In this day and age you get what you pay for. If we pay second rate allowances we get second rate councillors. Thankfully we have the vision to see past the ends of our nose and pay for the best.

i'm guessing the comment above is a joke?

What could be better, Councillors that turn a blind eye to a badly run hospital,
Councillors that back a massive corporation in it's bid to suck a small village dry and shut down it's family run businesses, Councillors which run their trainset through a struggling town and turn it into a shutter and poundshop hell,
Councillors who ignore every criticism and help to distribute Communist propaganda for a Jewish, genocide supporting burglar.

And all for around £110k a year (based off the average times the number of councillors) I think we are being ripped off.

Well you don't think any sane person posted it, did you?

We're exempt. Why? We just f***ing are. said...

Anonymous 15:05, the RBS chief got his job on ability, is good at it and is overpaid, the vast majority of Labour councillors are just overpaid. And why are they and the UN-elected upper echelons in the Town Halls of Britain allowed to sail blissfully through the recession whilst millions struggle.
I read the Unite Union magazine yesterday, it's like something from the 70s when it comes to public services. The sense of 'entitlement' and being 'apart' from the ordinary world without even an attempt to justify it seeped through every page.

This is a matter for all those, wanting to see the one rule system in operation.
There's no question of pleading guilty at any stage in the proceedings.
I have no faith in JUSTICE in this country, but I'll give a full account of myself on the day.
Those wanting to hear what's been going on in Dukinfield since 2006, should come along on the day.
I'm actually looking forward to CPS questions about smear and allegations.

A very sweeping statement. So where's the evidence? And don't point to numbers and payments.

Anonymous 13:16, The average councillor in Tameside receives £22,500 a year for a part time job and an unknown number of hours 'work'. This is the ninth highest in the country.
Councillor Ambler states it's more than 15.5 hours but offers no alternative figure, in other words there is zero accountability for our 57 councillors who represent a paltry 3700 people each. If an MP on £65,000 can represent 90,000 people plus, our councillors are chronically poor value for money. We'd be a lot better off with ten full time, professional councillors on £40,000 each.
Why no 'numbers and payments' as they are a vital part of the argument, but then the public sector in general's hostility to any form of accountability, particularly in Labour areas, is endemic isn't it.

In my opinion the very concept of local government is a total waste of money. The local authority should be under the direct control of the government of the day and administrated by independent professionals, including a resident's department that deals with the concerns of people in the Borough. All 325 councils in England should be abolished.

Labour Councillors are greedy parasites.

best keep ur back to the wall said...

When Roy goes down and ends up in the Big House on Thursday tell him not to fall for the old trick in the showers where an inmate deliberately drops a bar of soap and then asks Roy to bend over and pick it up. If he does he will making himself vulnerable to a sex attack.

You must know more than the solicitor then? You should be in law practice.

Just remember Roy; what does not kill you makes you stronger.

Best keep your back to the wall, I don't think he'll go down, and either way you'll still be a white hating racist c**t.

Taylor's in for a shock to his system on Thursday.
Advise people to come see.

Cllr Ambler is 'bending' the truth in his recent letter in the Tameside Advertiser. He states that he only claims £1000 per month as a serving councillor, which will lead to readers assuming that this figure is the sum total of his income. However, by failing to point out that he receives additional income for being a member of various scrutiny panels and committees, he is 'lying by omission'.

Anonymous said...

yes, and the cheeky bastard's total yearly income is £22k. He implies it's only £12k. Lying rat!!!!!!

Leading African-American black Nationalist T. West of AfriSynergy exposes the lies of Cameron and the international Rothschild controlled media on Libya.

Amnesty International, one of the criminal orgs set to up to facilitate NATO and Zionist agression around the world and whose hands are dripping with the blood of Libyans chillingly turned on the people they supported when they set up their offices in Benghazi before the war to butcher Libya on behalf of the banksters and are now issuing reports about their behaviour. Perhaps they think they can save face by doing so even as they struggle to hide the fact that Muammar Gaddafi won their own online poll for the 'Human Rights Hero of the Year 2011.'

T. West exposes the truth about what is really going on while the brainwashed multicult British sheeple, ever thirsty for the blood of blacks abroad while boasting 'anti-racism' at home, now lust for the death of Iranian and Syrian children, lulled by the lies of the Zionist-controlled mainstream media.

Only one major politician in Britain had the courage to stand against this looting and rape, this act of international piracy, and that was Nick Griffin for all his faults. Only a Nationalist government in Britain can stop the blood-letting econonic wars abroad disguised as 'humanitarian' wars which are the hallmark of all Bolschevick inspired social-Democracies:

They 'hate our freedoms' do thay? And what freedoms might that be in a repressive-tolerance, one-party liberal zionist occupied state?

Funny, I once rented a house in a village in Swat in Pakistan in the 1970s. Now Swat is a closed military zone beause 'they hate our freedoms.' Now I wonder if that has anything to do with occupying or forcing countries to host US bases and subject themselves to the Rothschild international banking system which along with bribes from British and other countries to corrupt officials means that these countries remain indebted, and thanks to CIA/Mossad/MI5/6 activity ever in turmoil?

I wonder if it has anything to do with the butchery by NATO including British forces in the Middle East and Africa? The drone strikes killing innocent people at wedding parties, the women Rothschild Air Force pilots bombing women and children all across Libya?

And the hypocracy of it all is that we trained, funded and fought for al Qaeda in Libya while fighting them in Afghanistan.

And I'm bigoted because I infer through the truth of T. Wests reporting that you are a bigot. The sort of bigot that Pavlovian like screams 'wacist' and bigot at everyone who stands up against your communist so-called cultural Marxist morality? And you dare to fly the Union Jack? A flag cynically stolen from our people by you internationalist, Red traitors.

Excellent post!

Anti-racism is really a cover to encourage the misgenation of all of our races. Without distinct races and identities, humanity is a force which is easier to chew for the Zionist elite.

The information is here said...

There really is some stupid individuals commenting on this post. TC clearly stated that this is a few years out of date, and this information is freely available. Every year TMBC publish these figures in the local press, and the clodhoppers making stupid remarks on here can check the TMBC website and work out the allowance each councillor is getting. I would dearly love the rotten Labour machine to come crashing down, but you dealing with old news on this post.
