I THINK A E Burdett was being very unfair in his letter, EA March 18. Frank Avenell (I presume he was referring to him, why did he not name him?) never claimed to speak for us.

He made his own judgment on the unfair council tax and I would think the majority of taxpayers in the country, not just Swindon, agree with him.

It is people like Frank who have made this government realise this, that is why they are bribing us with £100 for over 70s and why they are now talking of changing the system.

A BURN
