Identity Uncovered!

Remember this case?
One of two Bolton councillors who failed to pay their council tax on time has come clean — after a two-year legal fight by The Bolton News to name the pair.
Bradshaw councillor Mudasir Dean — who once stood as a prospective Tory MP — last night apologised to voters but said he would not stand down over the issue.
Well, of course not – after all, he has important work to get on with, doing…errr….wait, it’ll come to me.
The other councillor is a Labour member — but the party’s leader Cllr Cliff Morris said he did not know their identity.
In other words, the party’s so full of crooks, liars and cheats, it could be anyone…!

Just another instance of "Snout, meet trough. Trough, meet snout."

At the town hall where I work, if any councillor doesn't pay the Council Tax, we grass them up to the council leader. They then get a bollocking from the leader and their party rep, and told in no uncertain terms to pay up or it'll be deducted from the money paid top the councillor. Works every time.
