BBC reported today that the person to lead a fearless, independent investigation into the fiasco that was Cornwall County Council's handling of the take-over of Newquay from the RAF has been selected, by Cornwall County Council.
This is excellent news. We can now expect that no stone will be left unturned as this expert, hard-hitting investigator spares no feelings as he uncovers the person or persons responsible, and exposes their inadeqacies to the public gaze.
This champion of the people will not shrink from pointing the finger at those senior Council officials whose incompetence, laziness and stupidity led to the disaster that could still cost the taxpayers millions.
After all, he should know where to look. He's the ex-Chief Executive of, guess what........................
........... Cornwall County Council.
You couldn't make it up.
