(People on here have indicated that Ms Davani has 'taken over' staff awards and she isn't noted for her open and transparent operating style, so Civic Centre staff will probably laugh at the question. However, any information about any reasoning behind the extension would be appreciated).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2129943063330427887.post-49121010758100634072014-10-26T16:20:12.189+00:002014-10-26T16:20:12.189+00:0014:46 - I'm so sorry.

Given the amount of suspicion involved at the Civic Centre these days shouldn't they get the Electoral Reform Society in to ensure that everything is conducted honestly?<br />Also, shouldn't there be a deadline for the announcement?

So stop wasting time, effort, and credibility in these ill-thought and impossible attempts at silencing criticism and get your own houses in order first.<br /><br />If you don't, then you might suddenly find that other members of staff - who also know LOTS of very juicy information about scandals at the council - suddenly start writing their own blogs.<br /><br />I would suggest that you all get together and write something for the staff intranet which explains exactly what the hell is going on and whjat the hell you're all doing rather than issuing empty threats against a local campaigner who actually seems to give a shit about the residents of Brent - people you all seem to have forgotten that you are paid to serve.
