Rosendale going at full throttle, WHY?

By The Basa ⋅ September 17, 2007 ⋅

Lot of news in from Children & Families as usual. The staff thought that with the change of administration there would be a change in the hugely authoritarian nature of the department over the past five years which has seen morale drop to rock bottom and stay there for a couple of years now.

One of Mike’s top Rosendealers, his very own Rab C Nesbitt, has been shouting his mouth off again the pub whist in a drunken stupor. Derek Suttie is telling all that can understand his spoutings that:

Mike is going to close down all the Community Centres and get rid of the staff and management committees. He supposedly has a list of staff that he will ensure remains in post in HQ and that he and Christine Mac Kay have complied a list of the staff in the field who will retain their post.

According to Suttie, Fraudster Rosendale has stated he has the backing of the majority of the Labour councillors and staff believe this is correct because staff believe if they cross him, he knows where the bodies are buried and if he talks then a lot of senior officials and councillors may well end up on the wrong side of a conversation with Inspector Knacker.

What the labour Councillors don’t know is Rosendale has been smearing Ewan Aitken and Andrew Burns stating they are responsible for the mess in Children and Families. It doesn’t stop there, before his jaunt away, he briefed his wife and certain managers in Community Learning and Development that Gillian Tee was a hatchet women and would destroy all the work that staff had build up over the years. These staff at meetings throughout the city slated Gillian Tee.

There we have it - the only thing the Rosendales haven’t done is ask the council to rename the city RosendaleBurgh. What is most worrying here is that the LibDem councillors who are carried over from the last Council know this. They, in the last year to eighteen months of the previous administration asked numerous questions about everything that Fraudster Rosendale was involved with.

They are now in power and to every good employee in Children & Families it looks as though they are now hanging on every word that comes out of the Fraudster’s mouth. Why would this be. Is it more sinister and there are LibDems involved as well? What do they have to fear? Maybe it is time for Councillor Mrs. MacLaren to sit down and look thoroughly at what her officials are telling her - to us in EdSucks towers, it looks as though the shyte coming from the departmental officials is playing directly into Labour’s hands. Although it was Labour that got us into this mess, when the election comes people will not remember who got us in to the mess, they will only remember the mess and who was in power. Be warned!
