Enterprise award

South Tyneside - Capital of Enterprise

This is the new banner headline on our Council's website, they have won a hundred thousand pounds to go with this award, won in partnership with TEDCO and STEP. Gordon Brown, Image Hosted by ImageShack.us who initiated these awards would be proud of his New Labour colleagues who have resisted the temptation to squander the award by investing in any new exciting small businesses, but instead, have given it to "the spinning machine" to "to get the message across to people in the borough".

I wonder what people like Terry Deary think of this - he recently pulled his scheme to build a Horrible Histories Theme Park at Gypsies Green in favour of his home town, Sunderland - after waiting two years for South Tyneside Council to complete it's deliberations on his plans. I don't imagine that he would find our civic leaders so enterprising!
