It is a pity because although some were "over the top", a lot were genuinely amusing.Charlie Darwinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09987808612813891244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7647685282789008730.post-56119639139908162952008-11-25T20:41:00.000+00:002008-11-25T20:41:00.000+00:00To see the videos you need to go on You Tube and s...To see the videos you need to go on You Tube and search "Alan Jones Somerset County Chief" or similar. Fortunately for Somerset County Council they believe that they only have one detractor. Unfortunately they have a proven track record of self-delusion. There are in fact many blogs and videos, and judging from the different styles exhibited, many people contribute to them. Most of these blogs are NOT Political. As for Ian Liddell Grainger, he seems mad a hatter, but Somerset needs him. Just for a start he is the only "SomerBlogger" who dares to use his own name. In fact, if I lived in his area I would be sorely tempted to break the habit of a lifetime and vote Tory!Charlie Darwinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09987808612813891244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7647685282789008730.post-21591715489857155472008-11-23T20:23:00.000+00:002008-11-23T20:23:00.000+00:00Bristol City Council have signed a Shared Framewor...Bristol City Council have signed a Shared Framework Agreement with South West One already. This basically allows them to join the project at any time without having to undertake a procurement process.

I saw the piece on Lidell-Grainger and was pleased to see it getting more widespread attention - especially with, as BB says, South West One, who are at best extremely dodgy and at worst completely corrupt.<BR/><BR/>I'm currently trying to find out what plans they have for bringing Bristol City Council on board as I'm sure will happen. Sources in Somerset who currently work for South West One claim that future IT infrastructure plans - network and servers etc - suggest that they are fully expecting BCC to join Somerset, Taunton Dean, and Avon & Somerset Police in an "integrated shared-services solution".<BR/><BR/>More info on my blog as I get it.Bristol Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13143336218499645984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7647685282789008730.post-17851662805355478172008-11-23T16:53:00.000+00:002008-11-23T16:53:00.000+00:00You couldn't make Ian Lidell-Grainger up.
