Colin: "I'd like to see a fully-empowered Nairnshire Council"

Apologies to those arriving hear from further afield but we have a habit on the Gurn of using a lot of the "usual suspects" christian names in articles. Colin is, of course, Councillor Colin J Macaulay. One of our regular readers points us in the direction of a post Colin made on his facebook page four days ago. It is indeed in brackets but it is there:

"We promised in our Council Manifesto that we would begin a process of decentralisation - bringing decision making and accountability away from Inverness. So, from September we'll have a Nairn, Badenoch and Strathspey Area Committee. It may not be ideal (I'd like to see a fully-empowered Nairnshire Council) - but it is a big first step in the right direction!"

Some of us arriving 'here' don't have 'Christian' names; a reflection perhaps of the multicultural and indeed worldly places that the Gurn reaches?

Funny how so many people who come to the Gurn are called Anonymous?
