Today’s Beans on Toast carries quite a few references to the good burghers of Swansea and shares their views on a number of respective subjects vital to their political profile the public good. Yet one instance - and one individual - not mentioned was the absolute shambles seen at yesterday's session of the imaginatively named Planning and Petitions committee.
Without going into too much detail, we hear that the meeting fell apart in chaotic scenes and ended up inquorate because so many councillors walked out over a series of disagreements. The committee is theoretically made up of all 72 councillors although the original attendance was said to be less than half that figure.
Our sources tell us that a major contributor to the fiasco, which left a number of citizens left in the lurch over their applications, was the inept handling of events by the committee chairman. This is none other than hapless Wendy Fitzgerald who screwed up social services as cabinet member and was shifted to the post of presiding officer only to be dumped again. No change there then.
