They have no money to spare (From The Bolton News)

They have no money to spare

I READ with utter disgust, the article in the BEN of November 3, referring to Council members getting computers. It really disgusts me and my wife.

My wife and I go to various meetings to improve our neighbourhood, or try to, but all we get from the Council is they have no money to spare.

We don't know where some of these councillors are coming from. It's certainly not this planet.

No doubt the Council Tax will go up in April, so we will pay for the computers along with all the other stupid things this Council thinks are great.
