LET THEM EAT CAKE

Or words to that effect was the pronouncement made by Hodge this week in her speech to the press stating she would be fighting to save the £330,000 grant to the Broadway theatre.

You would think that St Hodge had the good common sense to understand the hard times people in the borough are suffering, what with the increase in food prices and utility prices and the growing cost of child care for working parents, but, no not St Hodge, she says we must have culture, well in good times we would agree, but, what do you cut out to buy the theatre tickets????????

Can you imagine, "sorry kids, sandwich only for the next 3 weeks, and don't forget no lights, no TV, we have to save for the theatre tickets".............

Give us a break Hodge and get with the real people.

The worrying thing is her Barking Mafia will do as they are told and vote to keep the grant to the theatre, so what service gets cut to the tune of £330,000?

  1. Bugger Hodge, I have very good reason to believe that the management of the Broadway Theatre was grossly overcharging local groups so they could not afford to use the place iny case. Look at the records and justsee how many local groups are mentioned......
    The quicker the Council takes away its grant the better it will be for local groups.
