The Cabinet meeting taking place in the Town Hall on Wednesday 18th at 10:30 am, has some very interesting business to transact, not the least of which concerns the SureStart children’s centre closures.
This will also be the first run out for the new cabinet. Ones to watch, Dominic Beck and Paul Lakin!

I’d be delighted to report back what’s happened at the cabinet meeting if the police will allow me to take my mobile phone in the cell with me.

I would be very happy to see what Cllr Beck does.
Option 1 for the centres is to stick to the plan and close all the ones proposed. This option includes closing the centres at Anston and Dinnington.
Option 2 is to save three of the centres, which includes Dinnington, but to close Anston. (and somewhere they will have to find an extra £350,000)
Which ever way he votes, he will be responsible for the closure of the Sure Start Centre in Anston
Cllr Beck also serves as a Parish Councillor in Anston, so how is he going to square that with those who elected him.
It seems to me that Cllr Beck`s party loyalty, overrides that of the Public.

The agenda is interesting to say the least
Interesting may be an understatement
A word of advice for those who may attend
Whilst designating one eye to the agenda
Keep one eye firmly fixed on cabinet members
Body language shall reveal a neat insight
For the cabinet now is dangerously divided
More divisions than Yugoslavia
Roger was furious in France when he heard
That of the Lakin and Beck entente cordiale
One eye on the agenda
One eye on the body language
Roger should not take any of this duo’s actions personally
For Roger is like the Deutsche Regime late in 1945
Sat uselessly without hope or a plan in the bunker
Just a matter of time
Soviets coming in from the East
Allied forces coming in from the West
Both have Roger’s head in mind and he is fair game.
Who shall take Berlin or in this case Leader and Rotherham
Yet it is Team Ellis coming in from the East and not the Soviets
Team Lakin coming in from the West and not the allied forces
Rumours that Roger has miscalculated the Lakin and Beck duo
And is now looking for other channels of support
So please make of Roger what you will
BUT
The Sun is setting on Roger’s Empire
There are two forces at play now and they are the driving force behind everything here on in
Team Ellis briefing against Team Lakin
Team Lakin briefing against Team Ellis
This game is far bigger than you may think
Every Councillor in Labour Group is on one side or the other
Montague and Capulet
