Are the media team elected officials?

If not why are they dictating policy?

Maybe if any councillors (especially Reform) read this they can explain.

This has been the system for several months - came in under the conservatives and is still in place under Reform. NN Journal is as far as we are aware treated differently to other media in Northants. Media officers rarely pick up the phone when we call, so have stopped bothering. different practice in the North where media officers are much more helpful.

They could examine the business case for investing 12million in an unwanted crematorium. My FOI request to see it is being interminably reviewed.

A Comms team that doesn’t bother to answer press enquiries and installs a two-tier system based on which parts of the media are approaching them… sounds like we’ve found a good place to start the cost-cutting!

How is it free? Someone must be paying the ‘auditors?’ They won’t be giving their time, skills and knowledge for nothing. If they want another

audit, then there should be a procurement process in place to decide who is the best company to do it

Cllr Keebles is absolutely correct in establishing the correct communications between WNC (working for the local public) and a kneejerk party, hell-bent on introducing 1830 style German politics to an established and humane society.

If Reforms' process us any good, it will uncover fraud worth several millions in the Sixfields area, encouraged by certain other controlling councillors.

But will it?

I doubt it.

This is all Bull and Bluster.

Just like 30p Lee Anderson, complaining about asylum seekers having their TV licences paid for them.

WOW! MEGA BIG DEAL!

K.C.C. pays for children's Homes, who also have TV licences.

Let's see Reform step upto the plate...but I'm not holding my breath!
