It is high time for me to put an end to your sitting in this place, which you have dishonored by your contempt of all virtue, and defiled by your practice of every vice; ye are a factious crew, and enemies to all good government; ye are a pack of mercenary wretches, and would like Esau sell your town for a mess of pottage, and like Judas betray your God for a few pieces of money.
Is there a single virtue now remaining amongst you? Is there one vice you do not possess? Ye have no more religion than my horse; gold is your God; which of you have not barter'd your conscience for bribes? Is there a man amongst you that has the least care for the good of the town?
Ye sordid prostitutes have you not defil'd this sacred place, and turn'd the town council into a den of thieves, by your immoral principles and wicked practices? Ye are grown intolerably odious to the whole town; you were deputed here by the people to get grievances redress'd, are yourselves gone! So! Take away that shining bauble there, and lock up the doors.
In the name of God, go!

Nice piece Cap`n! Probably way beyond the limited intelligence of most of the current crop in our local Councils! Any councillor who can support crack-pot nonsense like Moss`s "Visioning", "Shsred Space" and stupid "green" ideas such as switching off street lights at night - should be suspended from those same lamposts! To read the "crap" that we have a "Quality" Council is a very, very BIG lie!
Sadly correct.They probably think
Cromwell 1653 is a new cheap beer.
