Drivel From Devizes: Dateline – Sunday 22nd September 2019
Here is our weekly
round-up of events from D-Town:
1. Citizens
of The Vize came to the rescue of a poor woman who had swum all the way to
Bradford On Avon (twice) to demand that Wiltshire Council allow D-Town to leave
the Union with a Deal, only to be forced to swim back (twice). Whilst the bad news is that we didn’t get a
Deal, the good news is that the woman achieved a PB and a new World record for
continuous canal swimming.
2. And
after last week’s revelations in the publication of his memoirs by ex-Mayor
Willy Wontee, a new row has broken out after he revealed that he had broken the
accepted, but unwritten, protocol that the Lady Mayoress should never be
compromised, or directly involved in local politics. Wontee revealed that he “may” have suggested
that the LM “raise an eyebrow” or “give a come-hither signal” to voters in the
Potterne Independence Ballot in 2016. No
posh boys were harmed in the making of this cynical crack.
