“Plymouth Council may be responsible for all these services Neil.But taking each service as it comes. Schools: A lack of placements at Infant schools taking those responsible several weeks to find a placement for new starters or those transfering homes?
Bins: costing us dearly over the past year or so having to ring up the service officer, owing to repeatedly missing collections?
Roads; Well, what a disgrace for those travelling to work and for tourist's? potholes unmade roads? What did Cllr's do with the adeqate goverment grant's used to satisfacton by other cities
Planning application's : The obscene descision by Tory Cllr's on the planning committee to put politics and greed in place of the health and safety of communities with an intended monstrous incinerator at north yard, with as torage unit that will soon blot out the landscape for man ylocals for the next 25 years, at least?
Lighting: please someone? enlighten this council as to the real needs of the city?
Libraries and local authorities, all facing cut backs, whilst Cllr's relax in their inner cabinet pondering what more they can do to wreck the fabric of this once fair city of ours? Infavour of of short time ego seeking events that supposedly raise the cities prestige?”

“What a useless article”

“Scientology is a pyramid-marketing scheme which instills symptoms of mental illness in order to extort money, influence and power, and actively pursues a course of murder by morder (attempting to shut every door of opportunity in order to pressure into suicide) to anyone who spots what they are actually doing. When Scientology say 'Scientology are hear to STAY' what they are actually saying is Scientology is selling the same old fake-illusions as last year, and are simply trying to put bits of confusing information in people's heads in a confusing order, so when the brain attempts to solve the puzzle, the component pieces re-assemble in an ordered sequence which sounds like the voice of a god or goddess encouraging the person to commit suicide or buy more into Scientology.
Freemasonry, once a guardianed system held in trust of position Jesus Christ, whereby a respected Gentleman could conduct management of a position by remembering that the man is no greater than the position and the man is held in trust in God's good will; which has laterally allowed Solomon's columns to be hafted and the public opinion to be held of Freemasonry resembling Satan. No puzzle there any more. Golden Dawn.
Politics, a spoked wheel of spoken oathed promises.
A magickal order charges no fee
A friend never holds any debt Eden”
