Thanks to everyone who has emailed me and called me following the coverage in the Derbyshire Times and Mansfield Chad of the appalling decision by Bolsover Councillors to keep their sky-high allowances in spite of a call from their remuneration panel for a massive cut.
Some people have asked what I intend to do next and whether they can help. Well if we can borrow and twist a phrase from Churchill this is not even the end of the beginning on this issue. There are several aspects about how the decision was made which are almost as shocking as the decisions itself. And you can rest assured that every time the Council calls for cuts facilities, jobs and services I will be reminding them that if they hadn't scoffed so much of the cake for themselves there would be an extra £430,000 in the kitty.
