The Med Heading For East Beach?

Fresh from his four different views on East Beach it would appear that Cllr Assenheim has finally lost the plot over East Beach.

In yesterday's Southend Echo Cllr Assenheim was quoted as saying that he wants Palm Trees to appear on East Beach.

A mole inside the Civic Centre told me that Cllr Assenheim and Comrade Anne Chalk attended a meeting regarding the East Beach improvements.

My mole tells me that all is not well between Cllr Assenheim and Comrade Chalk as a row erupted regarding trees on East Beach.

Apparently Comrade Chalk wanted 'English' Trees while Cllr Assenheim wanted Palm Trees. The report in yesterday's Echo quoted Cllr Assenheim as saying that portfolio holder Cllr Anna Waite will consider the idea. My council insider tells me that this is not true as Cllr Waite claimed that Palm Trees were not, rightly, suitable for East Beach.

Following their bust up it seems that Cllr Assenheim 'won' the battle as Comrade Anne Chalk has published on her Shoebury News website that 'A councillor wants Palm Trees on East Beach'.

Oh what fun it must be in the Independent Party!
