If they want us to pay for stuff at use, then scrap the council tax. We can all bung the fire brigade £100 when they turn up, £10 to get the police officer to walk down your street ..... Yes that may seem impractical but why the hell should we be paying twice so they can charge us through the backdoor for stuff they should be providing.

quite right, i'm sure that if you look up the term wasteful in a the dictionary you will see the description.......................councils/local authorities. perhaps they should take a hard look at their own waste before preaching to the rest of us.
