Описание: I wince every time I see these grotesque wasteful signs around our borough. Wall space in a library could and should be used for any number of attractive and pleasing purposes. Stroking the ego of a pompous local politician is not one of them. To read more about the wasteful and unneeded logo / rebranding by cash-strapped Haringey Council click here. ______________________________________ It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. It was the epoch of public relations and Newspeak; it was the epoch of public cynicism and incredulity. It was an autumn bonfire of other people's cash; before a winter of despair. It was the season of new logos when Haringey Council erected red white and black notices everywhere before us. It was the season of farce when our Council wasted lb86,000 on a rebranding we neither want nor need. It was the age of deep cuts on vital services for children, for youth, for people with autism, for elderly and disabled people, and many many others. In short, the period was an age of extreme foolishness when a few local councillors threw public money around like desperate clowns aiming custard pies at a horrified circus audience. (Original - Charles Dickens 'A Tale of Two Cities'. )
