WHAT a surprise councillors agree a 43 per cent pay rise and I bet everybody was there (no holidays booked).
Then we get the rantings of Jim D'Avila about the Evening Adver and being negative. But as you are our local paper you are doing your job, reporting the good and the bad and, with the damning reports, it's going to be bad.
Why, oh why do they keep harping on about other councils (Milton Keynes, South Gloucestershire) getting more money than them? These councils give better services, and to be honest I am not interested in other councils, I am interested in this one.
