The EFM party

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

Right as we've now decided to put a EFM candidate in every ward in the next local election. We need to work out our policies, we have a while to form a election manifesto so lets start on here.

 

Mr Zeal please screw (or stick) this to the top of the page.

 

Regards!

Where do we stand on pub opening hours?

[Colin Zeal EFM]

What ward are you in, Laz? You up for it??

 

 

[Laz]

St Peters, same as Thorsey I expect.

[Colin Zeal EFM]

I think we need to put the majority of the council's money into staging a rock festival next summer at Verulamium.

 

 

[Laz]

Who would be mayor? I believe all the partys take it in turns, so we'd get a turn in a few years.

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

I think pub closing hours are more of an issue - not anymore as they will not be applicable!

 

No pub which applies for a extenstion will have it turned down on the grounds of local residents, you live near a pub therefore you know it's there and it's a vital part of the local community therefore should be embraced.

[Colin Zeal EFM]

Costello for major.

 

 

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

I agree Zeal, we have a massive park in verulamium and it's ideal for a massive rock concert, we also have excellent taffic links to the site!

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

Any band would want to play with the Cathedrial as a backdrop!

 

I'd have Costello as mayor

[Colin Zeal EFM]

Also, I think vowing to reduce council tax by 50% wouldn't harm our chances of being elected. And then, once we're in, we'll double it!!

To check out the list of current councillors look here. Quite a few retire in 2004 and does nayone know why there seems to be more than one in some wards <img src="/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

We could abolish it, then when elected replace it with the Golden Brick Tax - which can smash through your income like nobodys buisness <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Local Democracy? Fk me, that's all gonna change in the Fleetville area!!

We could issue meal tickets so all kids get at least one Costa's fry up a week.

[Colin Zeal EFM]

And to encourage local support for SACFC, we could insist that Gibson reduce the prices to a fiver, and make sure everyone in St Albans has to go to at least five games a season.

 

Also, with the Golden Brick tax, we could afford to buy the club off Gibson, and run it ourselves.

 

We could rename it St Albans EFM.

 

 

[CANV EFM]

abolish school milk and replace it with a dumpy bottle of stella

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

School field trips to places like Museums should be outlawed and replaced with away trips to Ryman league games, on trains!

 

Every citizen should have to swear on St.Alban that everything they do will be in the best intrests of the City.

Commuters that don't plough money into our pubs (ie the ones that just sleep here and go to London) will be given a "St.Albans Commuter Dormitory tax"

where do I sign....

[Laz]

I'd like to see a few more pubs in the town. I've read that one or two are having problems with the current council. I cannot believe local residents concerns over vomit and urine outweigh the need for convenient opening hours that suit the late night binge-drinker.

 

I want to clean the streets of drug dealers too. I believe the place for drugs is in the pubs. Why should these people get wet in the winter, hanging around in the rain.
