[quote quote=141848]It can’t be a surprise that this white elephant is going to cost more and this is just the tip of the iceberg. With 100% of us affected by increasing council tax and 90% affected by cuts to services, how the council and councillors can think that this white elephant project (which will be to the use and benefit of only 1% of constituents) can justify the costs and on-going costs is a mystery. What we have to do is get rid of the majority of the sitting councillors and replace them with intelligent, practical thinking councillors who will stand up to the overpaid hierarchy of the council. We, the majority, should direct the council – we pay your inflated wages.[/quote]
Well said Sir/Madam, BUT there’s always a but, how many people are willing to stand at the elections and take the flack that will always come against people who put themselves forward, MP’s Councillors whatever, not that they are all useless (there are some that do their best to stand up to the hierarchy )just the majority, see I am a point in case at complaining but would I put my head above the parapet !!
