Dog crap is annoying but much more healthy than this.

Didn't some councils invest in Icelandic banks and lose loads of money or something? I think ours did, now neatly bankrupt.

Our local council have made so many cuts, it's a crime. Our vulnerable have had their care decimated, our roads are crumbling, lamppost lights go into complete darkness at midnight every night, grass verges and pavements are neglected and our council tax bills continue to rise to eye-watering amounts without fail. but its guaranteed we will receive less essential services despite the ever-increasing bills we must keep paying.

What was she thinking of, making such a stupid, inept statement?.

My main concern is that Councils, in my area, are happily rebuilding shopping centres, etc., whilst selling off the sports/leisure facilities to help fund it all, long term.

Pretty much everything we, the public, bought and paid for is now gone into private ownership and huge numbers of flash shops have been bought, and paid for by us, instead.

Whatever happened to the old maxim "If you cannot afford it, don't buy it"?
