New Code of Conduct for Somerset


It is important that everyone knows where they stand. So to simplify things, I propose a local code of conduct comprising 100 simple rules for Somerset County Councillors.

Rule 1: The Chief Executive knows best;
Rules 2-99: As Rule 1;
Rule 100: In the interests of importance, anyone who disregards any of rules 1 to 99 will be got rid of, in accordance with the Venice Protocols.

The local code of conduct also makes life easier for us lesser mortals, since it means we can not vote with a clear conscience.

And if we don’t like it … we can move to Devon, like Jonesy himself!
