Who do you think pays for that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So who decides to put it on the agenda then or does it magically appear? Everything costs when it comes to organisations such as councils. It might be pennies but it still costs and it's my pennies paying for it. Those pennies are much better invested in education/NHS/etc that you keep banging on about on facebook Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
