LISTENING to greatest hits radio at 6am, I heard that every household will have to find an extra £240 a year because of increased in council tax and payments for council services, the TV licence etc.
Why? Where I live, we get very little done by the council. The roads are like Beirut, pot holes are like ponds.
The people who authorise these tax increases must have no conscience. They are probably the ones claiming vast expenses for being asleep in the House of Commons.
People say they are listening to the speakers between the seats – b******s.
How are people, single parents, pensioners, people on Universal Credit to survive?
How is this justified?
This letter was written with my eyes open. I await answers from the relevant persons.
