We here at pitsnpots are learning all the time! I got a call today from one of my sources on the "inside" telling me that we did not have the facility on our Blog to allow people to post ANONYMOUSLY! DOH! So we have put this right and now you can blogaway merrily safe in the knowledge that if you don't want people to know who you really are then you can use the anonymous feature when leaving your comments and posts! We have also removed the need to insert one of them word thingy's so it's now quick and painless to do the bizz!
I had emailed all sixty councilors to tell them about our blog and how it's for the people of the city to let them know our thoughts on the issues facing us all. No councilors have posted yet but with the gagging order imposed by Labour at least their councilors have an anonymous option! I'm a wee bit surprised the Likes Of Peter Kent-Bagley or the Democracy4Stoke guy's have not been on yet as these guys have normally got shed loads of things to say......

How do we know that we will have total anonimity? Will you stitch us up at the nearest opportunity or blab in the pub after half a shandy that yoy know who is saying naughty things?
Tony I don't think you will get Peter Kent-Baggaley on here. An ex-councillor of my acquaintence tells me that he is strongly against the elected mayor system and his politics are more or less marxist/stalinist.
I am generally a supporter of labour but not Meredith who should never have been chosen by them in the first place when they had some one a lot better like Mike Tapping. If they find a better candidate next time there might be some hope.
Peter Coates, the Chairman of Stoke City(Meredith supporter due to the nice sale) reckons that a businessman should fill the role of Mayor as a bridge between community and business.
The Governance Commission gives more credence to local politics and politicians than it does to 'independants' who have no pedigree to judge them by.
So, are there any business people within local politics?
Anonymous. How would we at Pits n Pots know who you were, if you are Anonymous? This site is all about people really saying what they think, with no holding back. As obviously Councillors are not allowed to go and say what they think, if they can do so anonymously, we welcome their input.
Yes, Alison but how do I know you'll keep my name secret if I open my gob? I'm Alan Pritchard from Bradeley and I want your absolute assurance that if I say anything, you'll not tell anyone my true identity.
Alan.
Anonymous, who is no longer anonymous, you can comment away, and we will promise not to reveal your identity as Alan Pritchard, ha ha. Who is he anyway?? Is this a name we should recognise? Sorry but I don't or are you just taking the michael?
