Glenda Powell Posted December 19, 2015 Report Share Posted December 19, 2015 Nick no longer a councillor, but a few discreet words in his ex-Tory colleagues ears would do the trick I am sure, and it obviously did. More than half of the planning committee are Tory, so he couln't lose. As the saying goes " its not what you know, but who you know".

Pete Boggs Posted December 19, 2015 Report Share Posted December 19, 2015 As for NN, I have no idea whether he was able to influence his brother's planning consent but I do know that he and his pal, Keyte, caught a considerable cold over the HUFC affair. They rather foolishly entered into a vanity project which they thought would be 'a bit of fun'. They were seduced by the idea of strutting around as camel-coated Directors and enjoying the perks of being associated with a famous football club. Sadly for them, that is not how it worked out and both lost serious sums of money propping the thing up. You'd need a heart of stone not to laugh. I'm glad the club is doing well though after the doldrums of the last couple of years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
