No, they seemed very reasonably arrived at.
If they had been accepted there would have been no newspaper headlines, no public outcry, no scores of angry letters in the local press, from people afraid for the security of their jobs, nevermind being put on short time, or settling for no pay rise at all this year.
It would have been sensible to accept the independently arrived at recommendations.
Do we think in light of the expenses scandal at national level, we can expect to see such disdainful arrogance from out local politicans in the near future, in regard to their expenses?
