THANK you for publishing the attendance percentage of councillors and which way they voted on the increase in expenses. It should help us decide for whom or not to vote at the next elections, provided we remember! The leader's rise is almost as much as the total income for this household and many more.With regard to the financial problems facing the Playhouse, does the group charged with solving them really believe that asking the excellent Friends of the Playhouse to show people to their seats instead of ushers will get very far in saving £200,000? They are mostly young people and I doubt whether they are very highly paid, and where are they to get other jobs?What if we start a group called Friends of the Council? They could then do the councillors' work free, thus saving many thousands of pounds!NAME AND ADDRESS SUPPLIED
