Liberal Bureaucracy

The musings of a liberal and an internationalist, living in Suffolk's county town. There may be references to parish councils, bureaucracy and travel, amongst other things. And yes, I'm a Liberal Democrat.

About Me

My photo
Mark Valladares
Ipswich, Suffolk, United Kingdom
Not your average bureaucrat, I live in the heart of Suffolk’s county town, Ipswich, with my rather more interesting wife, Ros. I’m coming to the end of my adventures in the first tier of local government, having chaired Creeting St Peter Parish Council for seven years. I travel as much as work allows, play a minor backroom role in the Liberal Democrats, and walk 10,000 steps a day…

What you need to know about this blog...

This blog, and the postings therein, represents the views of one liberal, i.e. me, and of no other person or organisation. Please don't try to represent my views as those of anyone else.

I do moderate comments, rejecting those I deem to be offensive, libellous or otherwise unacceptable. Anonymous commenters can expect to be either ignored or abused unless I agree with them. After all, like any publisher, I maintain the right to uphold certain standards. However, dissent with my views shall not, in itself, cause me to reject a comment.
