    In the news …… Car parking charges in Flintshire could soon go up as the council tries to raise almost half a million pounds.
    Flintshire Council says it currently spends more on managing its car parks than it makes from fees.
    Now the council wants to hike the cost of parking, in a bid to raise about £500,000 to cover the expense of running the car parks.
    Any increase would come into force in April. All options will be looked at before a decision is made.

    If Wrexham raised charges again then this would cover the shortfall of the public not being allowed to use the car parks at the Guildhall and Lambpit Street.
    This would mean Top Managers and Councillors can keep their spaces and another difficult decision is solved.

    These people are either elected by Wrexham people because we believe in them or put in a position of power because they are good at their jobs and DO deserve some sort of perk.

    Why does being good at your job automatically mean you deserve a perk. With that reasoning there are millions of people in the country who deserve a perk.

    The thermometer of success is merely the jealousy of the malcontents.

    I am in no way jealous of any one who succeeds. I can think of nothing better than people succeeding in what they do. I do wonder however why you are so keen for the public to pay extra so the Councillors can keep their perks.

    Why is it a difficult decision to ask we all pay the same?

    Staff parking is nothing compared to the money spent on the Groves and the White Elephant arts exhibition centre.

    It is not necessary for the public to know whether I am joking or whether I am serious, just as it is not necessary for me to know it myself.
