We may want to re-ink our nibs and write to the local stop smoking nanny.

"Rachel Noxon, Medway's tobacco control strategic co-ordinator also gave her approval for this stunt. You can contact her as follows:

Rachael Noxon, Tobacco Control Strategic Coordinator
Medway public health directorate
telephone: 01634 331074 end_of_the_skype_highlighting
email: rachael.noxon@medway.gov.uk

It is interesting to note that Medway Council is cutting funding for before and after school clubs for children and for library books whilst retaining the "services" of the Tobacco Control Strategic Coordinator and the spy cars featured on this blog a couple of days ago. Medway Council is a Tory council and it gives an interesting insite into their take on Dave's proclamation about smaller government and getting the state off our backs."

And they're on Facebook:

Anyone noticed the little blighters have a Facebook group? I've just joined it...now to think of exactly what to post in the discussions...

And if this doesn’t come up as a hyperlink, just search “Ciggy Busters” in Facebook.
Perhaps regular clever bloggers could pass this info round?

You've got to admire their alacrity.

Dear Filthy Engineer.

Thank you for your e-mail.

This department deals with complaints about the conduct of officers and staff from Kent Police, and not with crime allegations. I have therefore forwarded your concerns to the Complaints Manager at Medway requesting that the information you have provided be forwarded to the relevant Crime Manager at Medway and asking that an officer makes contact with you to discuss the matter further.

Sue Cooper
Manager

Sounds like there's a lot of buck-passing and 'not me, guv!'-ing going on.

Excellent!

Bucko said...

Thanks FE. Its does look like a lot of buck passing, Julia

I've joined their facebook group, ta for the link.

Oh yes Mr. Bucko, can you please explain to me why I don't have your blog on my (F-2-C's) blogroll?

You can cry and scream all you want but your going on it, so there!

Great blog BTW :)

Bucko said...

If you insist, Mr Yin. Who am I to argue?

I've reported it to Facebook on the grounds that it incites violence

To be fair l think the students are just taking advantage of their SS Grupenfuhrer Margarita to cause mayhem in the town centre with no worries of repercussions. Probably find that atleast 30% of these students smoke.

The head of the school got an e-mail stating that blogs and FB groups were being setup under the heading ... The Hitler-Jungden und SS Gruppenfuhrer Margherita Gramegna, Hundred of Hoo Comprehensive, SS Division Medway.

Light blue touch paper and retire to safe distance! :)

Bucko said...

George - Thats true. So does the Fat busters and Alcohol busters on FB.

Smoking Hot - LOL. I emailed the Kent newspaper with the blogs who have taken up the story. Apparently they are going to do a follow up.

Thanks for the link Anon

It looks like facebook have taken down the Ciggy Busters page.

Bucko said...

Result!

Bucko said...

Although having said that, I don't know if I would prefer it to still be there so that Facebookers can still have the debate with them.
Unless Ciggy Busters have taken it down themselves after admitting defeat. That would be the best result.

The Filthy Engineer said...

Rather than debate with them, I'd rather piss all over them.

I suspect they maybe heading for the hills.

Bucko said...

I doubt you would say that if they were on fire :-)
