  1. With respect Liz, you make it sound like Councillors such as Cllr Phil Edwards work for FREE? and in your words "receive no payment", when in actual fact if I take Mr Edwards as an example, his total allowances for the periods;

    April 1st 2007 - 31st March 2008 were £18,952.96

    April 1st 2008 - 31st March 2009 were £18941.22

    April 1st 2009 - 31 March 2010 were £19827.28

     

    Totalling £57721.46 in just three years!

    Which is over five times what I can earn for the same period! so he hardly works for FREE, of course he doesn't!!

    Its labelled allowances I guess. :Winking_32:

     

    Oh yes, I must correct myself, these allowances must be for his role as District Councillor because of course, he works voluntary as Parish Councillor or does he receive allowances for that role too?

     

     

    Full Councillor allowances can be downloaded from here

    Thanks for the info Rebecca,.Just had a look at the download for allowances, which makes interesting reading. If we do take cllr Edwards as an example, his 'Travel expenses' for 09/10 states £758.20=£63.18 each month.....hmmm...for the man who wants to be known as 'the cllr on a bike' seems to me that pedal power has suddenly become very expensive!?

    Also can anyone shed light on what 'Special responsibility allowance'is?

  2. This is a great service and should stay. While it is at Asda, you have no parking problems, is very central and should you need a prescription Asda is the only place to get one til 11pm...so why the need to move it?

     

    Good work Glenda, lets hope the petition goes to those that see sense and not waste time spending money on a purpose-built buiding at the hospital that we dont need.

  3. Ok unless you can contribute more positively please refrain from posting as I am getting fed up with the nasty comments. This is your first warning, another 2 and you will be banned. You have not had anything to say contructivly since you joined the other day.

     

    All councillors have a difficult and sometimes demanding role, so cut some slack please unless of course you think you can do better.

    :Thumbs-Up: is that not enough said on the subject now?
