Up there in her high security, “No Plebs Allowed” Eagle’s Nest on the top floor of the Counts Louse, we learn that City Council Chief Exec, Bum Disease Ormondroyd, has been doing a bit of shopping with our money in these recessionary times.
In an attempt to lend this gormless old bag and small-beer New Labour apparatchik from Bradford – with her saggy tits and moronic MA in business school jargon she bought herself a few years back – the essential regal gravitas undoubtedly required to run a soppy little provincial arm of government, we hear she’s carpeted the whole of her offices – and corridors – a delightful shade of purple!
Apparently the hard flooring everyone else has to put up with at the Counts Louse just ain’t up to it for someone as important as Jan.
How much has this bollocks cost us then? An FoI request will be off in the next few days we learn.
Mmmm… saggy tits…
Jan Ormondroyd is a very attractive lady.
we should have a sweepstake on the issue
Not the view expressed to me by a senior-ish city council officer (female I might add) at yesterday’s Eastside Roots Festival.
She said, “I’m sick to death of switching on my computer every morning and seeing Jan’s bad teeth and saggy tits leering at me.”
I think Jan is supposed to be the face of her and that copper from Sheffield who doesn’t know where Easton is’s brilliant “One Council” marketing strategy.
Note how this brilliant pair of business experts defy every accepted convention of the marketing industry who tend to favour young, slim, beautiful people rather than sad old mooses when it comes to fronting any campaign for anything?
Is it the intention for their “One Council” marketing campaign to be associated with saggy tits and bad teeth?
Or is that just what you get when you put a copper in charge of marketing?
Are her saggy tits pert inent?
“…favour young, slim, beautiful people rather than sad old mooses…”
Yes, well that just shows how mainstream your tastes are. Some of us have developed more sophisticated palattes you know.
i don’t know des … who has impertinent tits?
and how about esquire jon house?
doesn’t he have any impertinent appendages worth mentioning? or have staff so far escaped these on their computers of a morning?
Isn’t he supposed to be the brilliant strategist behind the charismatic leader?
There’s only two obvious problems with this plan isn’t there?
“two obvious problems ”
so what’re you suggesting? a bit of plastic surgery and it’ll all be tickety boo?
Well, if you’re going to sell yourself on charismatic leadership, it tends to entail having a charismatic leader doesn’t it?
Why do you have to bother with stupid schoolboy insults? Aren’t there enough serious malpractices going on at the Council House to comment on without sinking to such tabloid depths ? How can you expect to be taken seriously. I find these sorts of posts very disappointing.
Pfffft. Going on the videos that Jan has done, charismatic is the one thing she definitely isn’t.
Agree with ohcorblimey.
BB: I really like and value this blog but I’m not sure lowering the tone to physical appearances is the best approach, though the level of frustration with incompetent people in powerful positions is well understood, particularly when they are spending other peoples’ money!
BB. I’m worried that all this twittering is rotting your brain. “Saggy tits”? “Sad old mooses”?
If we are now judging people on such criteria, please post a picture of your arse and we can see for ourselves how pert is it. You sexist old loon.
I do enjoy this blog, but this article puerile rubbish.
Whatever one’s views on the Chief exec’s abilities & decisions, her appearance is irrelevant.
Yep, and here we see displayed exactly the sort of criticisms that I’d expect from some of the humourless old lefties who read this blog.
Keep up the good work Blogger.
Blogger. I would urge you to check the credentials of this “woman” that you claim to have met. For a start, is she a real woman? After all, what kind of a woman would use such language about another, especially a high flying role model like Ms Ormondroyd. First rule of feminism: never, ever, criticise another woman – we all know that a man is really to blame.
I know PP vibrator, these lefties, so uncool, don’t they know mysogony is the new black…..
Bloody hell Bert, has Kerry McC. sent in the EBAs rapid rebutal unit?
Interesting. If you dare to be critical it can’t possibly be an opinion of your own.
Hmm… flawed on a number of levels…
Hang on a minute. She’s the one that’s made her appearance relevant by choosing to use her photo at every opportunity to attempt (albeit badly) to manipulate her staff .
The inference here is that a well-paid bureaucrat should be able to use their image and appearance to con people without criticism. Why?
If her appearance isn’t an issue why is she quite deliberately using it?
There’s also a straightforward business issue here.
Ormondroyd wafted into town waffling on about business and marketing.
Unfortunately there’s not much sentiment and PC around in real business.
The reality is that if you proposed using a photo of Ormondroyd to promote your business to a bunch of experienced marketers and ad men they’d tell you straight to forget it because she’s got saggy tits and bad teeth.
If that kind of straight talking is too much for the delicate sensitivities of public sector bureaucrats then perhaps they’re not really cut out for a business approach?
Personally, I’m more interested in what those in authority do with their minds and the power granted to them. If someone with saggy tits and bad teeth could sort this city’s ongoing problems out I’d be delighted!
You’re missing the point. She’s the one who’s used her mind and power to create an aggressive marketing agenda (she even got loads of extra money from the budget this year for it). I’m simply responding in precisely those marketing terms.
She’s the one plastering her photo all over the place as a marketing ploy. Can we not discuss the effectiveness of that?
As I’ve made clear, I think trying to create a corporate image around her is utter madness and I’ve given the reason why based on her appearance because she has chosen to promote her appearance.
Funnily enough, the first thing Heather Tomlinson (remember her?) did when she joined BCC was buy a bloody expensive big ‘meeting table’ for her office, put a Jemima Puddleduck stencil on her window, and order a huge fuck-off Capuccino maker so she wouldn’t have to mix it with the plebs down the corridor of the Counts Louse. Overpaid BCC makeweights do this type of thing, to put some clear blue water between themselves and the workers. No doubt it won’t be long before Jan heads the same way as Heather.
Jemima Puddleduck stencil ? That’s a new one on me. But I like it.
Has Jan got her Squirrel Nutkin stencil yet? And presumably that copper from Sheffield will have a Little Pig Robinson one?
