YOUR report on the possible nine per cent increase in the community charge has worried a lot of my fellow pensioners, especially those living alone. Most are in category E, and although they get a 25 per cent reduction, the charge represents a fifth of their pension, £2.27 per day last year!
You could do us a favour highlighting problems with the community charge and find out if councillors, who squandered thousands of pounds in recent years, would be happy to pay 20 per cent of their income.
Best of luck with your campaign with the fountain farce!
