As some of you may be aware I have been in some discussion with Councillor Terry Kelly over on his blog.
Because I won't post my personal details on the internet (never advisable) he has decided to bar me from posting to his site, nothing, I am sure, to do with the questions he cannot or will not answer. For the sake of clarity, I will copy those questions here, and he can answer if he has the gall. I wont bar him.
Terry-- in that case can we expect in the fullness of time, that you will address the questions I have posed in respect of housing/homelessness, Trident, the Iraq war, Councillor pay-offs and deprivation (where's the pub, where's the bank, where are the jobs, where are the apprenticeships, where is the policing -- the police station hasn't opened its public office for months and even the police station sign is vandalised -- where is the cleansing dept--there is an old mattress lying in a lay-by not 50 yards off your own street in Drums Ave. and it has been there, to my sure and certain knowledge for at least 3 weeks, I pass it going home every day-- do the council's employees who pass sweeping the streets not report anything. Yes, Ferguslie Park certainly has a lot to thank Labour for.
Terry—I said I would do my own research into the housing situation after our last exchange, so here it is :-
April 1st .............. number on waiting list for council housing
2004 ............... 6534
2005................ 7465
2006................ 6719
in addition, in 2006 there were 2820 on the transfer lists.
Are you still pleased about the number of houses you knocked down and didn’t replace?
Terry- If as you say, 'There is only one etc.' then you obviously believe you already have my ID. For me to post it on your site would be to invite the same people who posted your full address on their site to do the same with me. I don't believe that we should do that. If you want to bar me then that's fine--I'll post on my own blog and be just as happy.

Terry—You’re just not getting it. The old mattress was a symptom of a greater problem, it wasn’t the problem in itself. Getting the thing shifted really shows how effective you are in exercising influence in the council. It might have been more believable if they had shifted the old tyres lying in the same lay-by for the same length of time, however, it’s the thought that counts, and you probably think you are effective.

Great Post! Facts, figures, research, local knowledge. You'll never get a straight answer out of him.
I'm not sure if you're referring to the Terrywatch site when you mention his home address being published. Can I just point out that his home address is published on the Renfrewshire Council website, presumably with his consent. As he makes this information public I see no harm in publishing it elsewhere.
Clairwil thanks for the compliments, I'm all wasted.
Terry has barred you as well, I believe. This club is losing its exclusivity. Someone (who is not barred) should explain to Terry (and for that matter, to Rayleen) that if your blog isn't interactive then it is just a megalomaniac rant.
As for publishing addresses, publishing them on a council website and publishing them on a blog devoted to attacking someone are slightly different I think.
