On Monday morning, up and down the country, people with no previous experience of Local politics, will be storming in to council chambers, fuelled by adrenaline, vowing to make immediate changes but with little idea how to make it happen as vacant as the minds of those who voted them in.
They will be relying on Reform National Office for guidance, which will be slow in coming as they’ll be overwhelmed, unprepared and quite possible unbothered.
The new councillors will treat the people who work for the council with utter contempt, after all they have "a mandate from the people!"
Those very people who actually do the work in councils will continue to serve their towns, villages and cities, after all it’s their job, but I doubt it will be with enthusiasm.
Within weeks, the cracks will become apparent, the resignations will start, the revelations will appear, the peurile excuses will be proffered.
Right now, Reform at Local Council level are drunk on euphoria; sobriety will exact a terrible toll.
So if you’re sad at the moment, allow yourself a little smile as you imagine the terror that is beginning to grow in elected councillors without a clue.
I suspect their own supporters expectations will be part of their downfall.
I actually feel a little sorry for them... Nah, just kidding; let the carnage begin!
