helloitsonly Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 (edited) 1 hour ago, Anna B said: Magid Magid is a man of the people, and seems to have a nose for publicity - something Sheffield desperately needs, it puts Sheffield on he map at least. Meanwhile I can't even remember the name of the other (very expensive) Mayor, who seems to do very little to promote Sheffield, in fact I've no idea what he does at all. Does anybody know? there is one good thing that will come out of this? is that it will never happen again. 6 minutes ago, melthebell said: not wearing a silly hat i presume? well he was wearing a builders safety hat in the town hall the other day chairing a meeting, the mans a loon and a liabilty.

Here is a very good piece about the office of Mayor that sums thing up well and published in The Star: https://www.thestar.co.uk/news/david-behrens-a-question-of-office-politics-for-mayors-with-perks-but-no-power-1-9482897 I really hope that he's read this quite excellent article and has sufficient common sense to behave with decorum in the future, although I'm not holding my breath!

teeny Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 I really like Magid , hes speaking out for truth and for the world which is is dire straights . What you don't see is how hard he works away from the public eye . The last Lord mayor to do anything useful was Tony Arbor , who did masses for disabilities awareness in Sheffield, Magid will leave a fantastic record and the council will get no one better to represent them .

Or evidence that he is self serving? what were your views on previous mayors? Any examples of where he is going wrong compared to them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
