Its actually a very small interlinked elite that bring very little to city, with work and houses elsewhere, who wish to stop anything happening for others who live in the city, an anti democratic elite which has bought off the greens and liberal democrats and has put a stranglehold on progress, costing others jobs and improved prosperity.
I have said it above but anyone voting Lib Dem or Green in upcoming elections is mental, they are bought and paid for, they will screw you over in anyway that helps the wealthy people they represent.
