| The trouble with populism like Grimebusters (an egoistical councillors Ghostbusters) even on occasion when it takes the eye, is that funding and resources are stripped from the regular and steady maintenance of services required by residents. A visual example to jog memories would be lamp posts remaining unpainted for donkeys years. More abstract to some would be the reduction in road resurfacing expenditure, easily unnoticed for four of five years, but a false economy which only results in many poor road surfaces requiring expensive work at the same time. |
