governments have no power to change transmission charges - these are set by the regulator who is independent of governments.

My heart really bleeds for them "Announcing pretax profits up 27% to £302m, Serco said its operating margin has grown from 6.2% to 6.4%." The fine is to protect our money i.e. the government grant of £35 million they get to run the service.

Funded by Shetland Charitable Trust who have given Viking sums of £3.6 milliom and £6.3 million - not that that money could have gone to COPE or pensioners or anything charitable.

Well, you say that – but it was the local community that came up with the solution to the interisland ferries cuts and the parents have suggested workable solutions for the schools cuts. I’m amazed that Craigie and Budge are still on the payroll – it’s there where the real cuts should be made.

No point in complaining on Shetlink - SIC councillor for transport is Allan Wishart and he was singing NorthLinks praises in the press last week so have a go at him, after all that is what you are paying him for - his contact details are: Phone: 01595 694224 Mobile: 07825088930 Email: allan.wishart@shetland.gov.uk

For Fecks sake get real – no need for COPE to be hammered - what the Fecks the Charitable Trust there for? to keep Wishart's pals in Viking Energy in the 4x4+expenses lifestyle to which they've become accustomed? The SIC is comparatively the richest local authority in the country with £200 million in reserves and the same again in the Charitable Trust. COPE was one of the few good things that came out of the last 20 years of Council run by a local mafia with Cluness and Goodlad as the Godfathers. The shower we’ve got in the Town Hall at the moment has been panicked into swingeing and unnecessary rate of cuts by a clique of senior officers and so called ‘senior councillors’ who wouldn’t like too close a look to be taken at things that were going on over the last 20 years. The trouble is the gutless mongrels of councillors we have at the moment won’t stand up to the SIC officers who are pushing to get these cuts to save their own overpaid miserable skins.

I worked with a guy in Glasgow who had a wife and young child and lived with his parents. As I rostered his shifts he was always keen to get any overtime going – he said he was saving to get a council house. Not to buy a council house, but to get onto the waiting list by giving his local councillor a sum of money – the more he gave the councillor the higher he would get on the waiting list. Would the same system work in Lerwick?......answers on the back of a £50 note to your local councillor............

The SIC could sell parking permits and wheel clamp non permit holders - could raise funds that way.

What did Alistair Carmichael (Orkney & Shetland), Vote?
exciseman replied to papastour's topic in Shetland News
It might be if you were English and lived (at the moment) on Papa Stour... Ah! - I didn’t realise Papa Stour was a county of England, I thought it was a protectorate of Forvick. -

exciseman replied to papastour's topic in Shetland News
I don't understand - Why should his constituents contact him? (unless they wish to get married in England) – an English Bill in Westminster it isn’t a Scottish issue. -

This Bill doesn't apply in Scotland so perhaps he shouldn't have voted? -
