that's easy - cut the rates. The whole town centre loss of business
problem is largely down to rates.
This will be remedied :-(
I wish, it's killing retail
How would councils exist on less income?
They wont, they will up the income.
Stop wasting so much of it would be a good start.
They cannot stop wasting money, it's inherent in the system. Making
individuals accountable for their incompetence would go a long way
toward cutting waste, but it wont happen.
Ever heard of a public sector employee losing their job due to
incompetence? I haven't... It generally tends to result in a
promotion from my experience ;-)
Not many private sector employees either. When they
are sacked they walk away with a golden handshake.
Its only those at the top that get any golden handshake when sacked.
