  1. Private Eye recently described Thurrock Council’s bankruptcy as being like,”Croydon on Crystal Meth”. God knows what they will say when they hear about this.

  2. I don’ know of any other job where you can make a complete ‘cods’ of it and get the public to pay for your mistakes’ and then receive a 4% pay rise instead of being locked up.
