Not very representative of the full council. All Conservative members, which will limit any varied viewpoint on what will be a considerable upheaval.
One of the reasons that we are in this pickle is the result of a cabinet system, theoretically fine, but again full of like minded views. No Labour, no LibDems no Independents, All of whom will no doubt be frustrated that alternative ideas for the changes will not be aired and discussed in Cabinet.
Poor show NCC on selecting just "chums"
