PURE THEATRE - POULES SANS TETE

Is it still too late for panto? We don't think so. We were treated to an amazing display of Shepway theatre last night featuring David Monk, Alistair Stewart and the full compliment of Cabinet Cronies. 

Poules sans tete (Headless chickens) was expertly executed by an experienced cast of true thespians displaying their theatrical skills within the ampitheatre of the Civic Centre, Folkestone.

So what's it's all about?

The cabinet meeting was an exercise in 'kicking about' the pretence that a Lorry park with a capacity of 3,600 would solve the problem of Operation Stack.
We won't bore you with the detail of puerile debate which ensued because we all knew what the outcome would be. Another box ticking exercise from a pathetic council towing the line of Cameron, Carter, Collins, Green and Highways England.

In an academic attempt to make the council realise that their approval of a very large white elephant is a catastrophic mistake, we would pose just two very simple questions: We have taken the liberty of answering for the cast of  Poules sans tete based on their preceding debate.

Q.  If a very long road has a steady stream of 6.000 Lorries over 24 hours. How long      would it take to fill up a lorry park with 3,600 spaces?.

A.
Poules sans tete  ??????????
Paul Harwood, Highways England: . Less than a day.
Average 8 year old student: 14.4.hours

Q. When the 3,600 Lorry park is full, where will all the other Lorries go?

A.
Poules sans tete We will look at future development another time. But for the meantime, let's concentrate on the debate this evening.
Paul Harwood, Highways Enland.  Back on the M20 as Stack.
Average 8 year old student: The remaining 2,400 day's worth of lorries would have to be stacked on the M20. The problem is, unless the world implodes just as the last of the 2,400 lorries is stacked, another 6,000 will be arriving the next day.Please let me know if you require a more detailed analysis.


So, once again, there we have it. Call them what you like; 'Headless Chickens', 'Rat's on a sinking ship'  lemmings all rushing off the edge of a cliff. The problem is;............................ they're taking us with them.
