    Is an arrest record essential to be a councillor in Wrexham?

    Having met borris, I voted for someone/anyone else.

    Some poor sap in qp is probably not a piece of crap, but they appear to be a very small minority.
    Five(+?) murders within a mile of Prince Charles Co-Op within the last 20 years, plus the riot, daily drug dealing.
    Probably the only residential area in Wrexham with a daily council street sweeper/s, and it still looks like a tip every morning.

    Not their`s to take does not seem to bother qp much;
    Been burgled three times by the finest scum from there before we moved.

    All qp does is whine, whine, whine whilst sat on their bum with their hands out demanding more.

    All my life qp is a bottomless pit to throw more in, while the ones who have to pay it, get less.

    Wrexham would be better off if the council started running wrexham, and not pandering to qp all the time.

    If you look how much is in the bucket, its obviously shallow and too small for a bigger bucket to get in. Guy used what was to hand.

    Typical QP, most of them would not recognise work if it bit them on the arse, yet alone an intelligent thought.

    As for Plaid, they only exist in wales, and still only rank fourth.
    Utterly pointless waste of space.

    Not exactly news.

    CCTV was installed on council industrial estates, the installers turned up to do the annual service the following year; and found the computer still in the box under the desk.

    That system was replaced several years later having never been fully operational on some sites.

    It was also objected to on one site as persons attending youth offenders were having their privacy invaded; or some such guff.

    When it did work, the HD videos were superb; and utterly useless, as local plod were totally disinterested.

    Still, the council cctv camera by Abenbury stores was stolen, and they didnt even know, as no one was checking the feed.

    There is an infatuation with building on nine acre, as pointed out, there is a derelict school site that is covered by an education only covenant.
    Yet nine acre is the only site considered.

    Exactly what is it about the Groves site and /or nine acre that we are not being told?

    I would echo AlunH comments on the economic development department (as existed, its been gutted) and Peter Scott (who was a part of ITEC for some years iirc).

    I have limited experience of the “elected” council members, but it has been generally of low impression; I have said for years however that the council “officials” were of a split personality. Half appear to be helpful beyond words in pushing forward Wrexham as a town, the rest appear to exist to stop the first half doing their job.

    The economic development team and Mr Scott, were head and shoulders in the first camp.

    City status will be given to a garden shed in the middle of nowhere, as it presented a more convincing bid.
    Lorry carrying yoghurt crashing in town will be as close as we get to the culture status.
    Council will re-elect “all of the above” on a reduced turnout.
    Wrexham AFC will again start the season touted as “good enough for the playoffs”, while attempting a mid season bid for the relegation zone. Again.
    Netflix sell the broadcast rights to Nat Geographic, who can`t decide whether to broadcast next to the animal shows, as it looks like a zoo, or the alien conspiracy shows; as it looks like alien life on another planet.
    Majority of Wrexham labour supporters still whining about Tory austerity, while sat on bums waiting for UC/PIP to land; as they have for the last 40 years.
    Welsh labour still screwing the welsh NHS up, while aided by WCBC the master plan of educating Wrexham`s youth to a maximum iq of 90 and able to grunt with a welsh accent is stepped up.
    Re-Re-surfacing the A483 delayed until 2023ish, they stuff it up again; road down graded to B status by WAG, as “unnecessary” extravagance for North Wales: Speed limit reduced to 40mph.
    WCBC declare sanctuary status for spice heads; nation wide tour to recruit more to the town.
    Cat A extension to Berwyn announced.
    Plaid have a hissy in Council when the launch bid to rename town “Caia” in recognition of the vast significance of QP to wrexham`s history.
    Library closed as to few can actually read, and the rest are sick of dodging the dossers around the town to get there.
    WAG redefine ambulance waiting times, so the clock does not start running until two hours after arrival at A&E door.
    A&E at maelor closed to reduce waiting times to zero.
    WCBC win national award for outstanding achievement in its cohesive planning department, LDP lauded for its excellence in creative fiction.
    WCBC crest replaced with facepalm emoji.

    I was always curious what happened to you after Yale, I would have accepted anything between “dead in a doorway” and “University Don”.

    Wrexham Council, in one guise or another, has had ambitious plans to restore the glory days of 25~30 years previously to the town, for the entire of my life: I am 53 in a couple of weeks.

    The Council seems to have a split personality, half the people I have dealt with can not do enough to help or promote the town; most of the rest seem to exist only to prevent the first half doing their job.

    Honestly how many people do you need to employ to repeat “we cant do that”?

    As for the elected councillors, too many have police mug shots; others manage to look like they belong as extras in a Guy Ritchie film.

    The recent interest in the football club, was originally quoted as involving a £2million investment. In the grand scheme of things that is a fairly small sum, the pavlovian reaction it has created, just shows how small minded and financially destitute the town actually is.

    Never mind city status; town may take some effort at the moment.
