Okay times have changed, but I actually think its time to go the whole hog with local government and make being a councillor a full time job, cut down on numbers and make it attractive for people with a bit of nous to get involved, then we might see our Town Halls being run effectively. Lets face it councils employ officers on quite good salaries, who are answerable to part time political activist, not a great recipe for success is it  |
Couldn't agree more Jaysay, certainly something of the value & importance to the town as the Market Hall needs to be run on a much more professional basis than it seems to be as things stand!
