Would you vote for this man?

On his first morning as Mayor of Doncaster in South Yorkshire, Peter Davies cut his salary from £73,000 to £30,000 then closed the council’s newspaper for "peddling politics on the rates".
Now three weeks into his job, Mr Davies is pressing ahead with plans he hopes will see the number of town councillors cut from 63 to just 21, saving taxpayers £800,000.
Mr Davies said: "If 100 senators can run the United States of America, I can’t see how 63 councillors are needed to run Doncaster".

He has withdrawn Doncaster from the Local Government Association and the Local Government Information Unit, saving another £200,000. Mr Davies said, "They are just talking shops".
"Doncaster is in for some serious untwinning. We are twinned with probably nine other cities around the world and they are just for people to fly off and have a binge at the council’s expense".

The mayor’s chauffeur-driven car has also been axed by Mr Davies and the driver given another job. Mr Davies, born and bred in Doncaster, swept to power in the May election with 24,244 votes as a candidate for the English Democrats, a party that wants tight immigration curbs, an English Parliament and a law forcing every public building to fly the flag of St. George.

He has promised to end council funding for Doncaster’s International Women’s Day, Black History Month and the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender History Month.
He said, "Politicians have got completely out of touch with what people want.
"We need to cut costs. I want to pass on some savings I make in reduced taxes and use the rest for things we really need, like improved children’s services".
Mr Davies has received messages from well wishers across the country and abroad as news of his no-nonsense approach spreads.

this man is a realist, unlike most poloticians he has a grasp of reality and doesn't live with his head in sand and probably came from a background other than eton!!

I would vote for him, absolutely.
As long as he's not a commie or a fascist, or God forbid New Labour, he has my vote.

Mr "taxi"Davies was my R.E teacher at school and was "allegedly"a big gambler and was always seen at dinner times emerging from will hills.
He got the nickname"taxi"cos he "allegedly"owned a betting shop in his wifes name which got closed down due to tax"irregularities".
I would like to add that these were rumours at school and are in no way shape or form true!

Lol

I remember a teacher at school who was 6ft 6 and took no shit

If you were swinging backwards on 2 legs of your chair he would kick the legs away from you i kid you not

Once at the end of the school day when you put your chairs on the table, a lad had his head between them laughing and making jokes
The teacher came up and smashed both chairs together trapping his head

Oh why cant they get away with stuff like this these days
Teach the little shits a thing or too lol

You could start a whole new thread about evil teachers.

We had a Geography teacher by the name of Mr Sadler who thought nothing of launching a blackboard rubber at you. He also had a hardback book which must of been 5 inches or so thick, he'd sneak up on people and whack them round the head with it if they carried on talking in class.

But his favourite, and most sadistic trick, was to make a pupil stand facing the wall with a ruler between the kids nose and the wall making them keep the ruler there all lesson!!

The guy had serious issues with kids and was ruthless, but looking back, you gotta love the man!!! :P
