Clearly this is of little interest to Thompstone, although he is happy to insult them by suggesting they should spend their time thinking up ways to cover the cuts he and his colleagues have chosen to impose. I'm afraid this is yet another example of a young and inexperienced Barnet Tory councillor being given too much responsibility. Not sure how we explain Cornelius' crass comments, except that he too is inexperienced in political terms, being more used to flogging engagement rings than dealing with the realities of social care.Mrs Angryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00586223909475832791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6371203489316363738.post-3233605545329895222014-03-27T10:24:03.487+00:002014-03-27T10:24:03.487+00:00Cornelius, Thompstone and their cronies should be ...Cornelius, Thompstone and their cronies should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves. Professionally and personally I have met parents, carers and children like Mapledown's pupils and I have the utmost admiration for them all. But they don't quite fit this administration's ideals do they so Cornelius and his chums think they can ride roughshod over them. Good luck to all at Mapledown and let's hope on May 22nd we teach the current administration a lesson. And incidentally if Thompstone hasn't even visited Mapledown, what is his salary for? Perhaps his suggestion of the "school being more creative in the way it raises money" might include an application to him for funds?Partygirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16458381093714683677noreply@blogger.com
