Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: I wince every time I see these grotesque wasteful signs around our borough.
Wall space in a library could and should be used for any number of attractive and pleasing purposes. Stroking the ego of a pompous local politician is not one of them. To read more about the wasteful and unneeded logo / rebranding by cash-strapped Haringey Council click here. ______________________________________ • It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. • It was the epoch of public relations and Newspeak; it was the epoch of public cynicism and incredulity. • It was an autumn bonfire of other people's cash; before a winter of despair. • It was the season of new logos when Haringey Council erected red white and black notices everywhere before us. • It was the season of farce when our Council wasted £86,000 on a rebranding we neither want nor need. • It was the age of deep cuts on vital services for children, for youth, for people with autism, for elderly and disabled people, and many many others. • In short, the period was an age of extreme foolishness when a few local councillors threw public money around like desperate clowns aiming custard pies at a horrified circus audience. (Original - Charles Dickens 'A Tale of Two Cities'. ) |
