Once upon a time, in the serene towns of Smalltown and Dullbridge, Headmistress Kelsey Dullard was well-known for her extra long speeches delivered during School Assemblies and her ability to turn up on cue if she spotted the merest whiff of a photo opportunity.
However, when a wave of political unrest swept through Smalltown and Dullbridge, Cllr Dullard found herself thrust into a position of power beyond the school walls.
With a patronising smile designed to hide her cunning, Cllr Dullard seized control of Smalltown and Dullbridge, promising stability, prosperity and lovely Climate Rescue Action Plans. Yet, as her authority grew, so did her thirst for control. Slowly, the ineffectial Headmistress transformed into a ruthless Dictator, ruling with an iron fist.
Gone were the days of freedom and democratic values. Dictator Dullard’s decrees became law, dissenters were silenced by her right-hand enforcer, Deputy Dictator Cruella Sherry, and dissent was crushed underfoot. The once vibrant town now cowered in fear of its tyrant ruler.
But within the walls of Smalltown and Dullbridge, whispers of rebellion stirred.
Residents complained about the decisions taken by Dictator Dullard and her fellow BeFuddleds, decisions designed to fleece as much money as possible from residents to keep the White Elephant dream alive.
“We voted for change” the residents wailed, “and all we got was more of the same and worse.” Led by a brave few, they plotted to overthrow the tyrant and restore freedom to their towns. .
In a dramatic climax, the rebels launched their assault on the dictator’s stronghold. Amidst the chaos, Dictator Dullard faced a reckoning with her own conscience. In a moment of clarity, she realized the depths of her tyranny and the suffering she had caused.
With a heavy heart, Dictator Dullard surrendered, relinquishing her grip on power. The towns emerged from the shadows of dictatorship, scarred but hopeful for a brighter future. And though Dictator Dullard’s legacy would forever be tarnished by her descent into tyranny, her redemption would lie in the lessons she could learn from her fall from grace.
