I HATE to admit it, but I must agree with Councillor Elfan Ap Rees that North Somerset Council should be trimmed down, in my opinion, by maybe a third.

Why not abolish Weston Town Council, then those savings could go to meaningful, needed services.

Bear in mind it's been suggested that there should be a reduction in the number of MPs.

If they do cut down on MPs, then I feel they must have a fairer voting system, proportional representation, for example.

Seeing as cuts and savings must be made to clear our debt, pay freezes should be imposed for maybe a year.

Would supermarkets freeze there food prices to compensate, after all they make billions in profit each year, but that is just wishful thinking.
