QUESTION - is there something I am missing here? Why is it permissible for our elected councillors to award themselves substantial increases in their allowances, etc., when the majority of working people and pensioners' financial increases are tightly linked by our Government to the annual rate of inflation?Is there some special dispensation for all politicians in matters financial?GEOFFREY HOLBURD - Prescot Close, Weston
