Fat Cats laughing all the way to the bank

Have your say!

Dear Ed,

So we are back to the days of 'Fat Cats' in the public service.

It is nothing short of obscene, no public servant is worth more then £50,000 a year, if these jobs were advertised for that amount we would be inundated with applicants more then capable of doing the job.

They must not only be laughing all the way to the bank, but also at the general public for being so stupid as to sit and take this!

Some may say that the vastly over-inflated 'wage' reflects the responsibility of the position they hold, were that to be true, when did anyone ever hear of a public servant or a boss of a top national company (or country) for that matter ever accept responsibility when something goes wrong? 

We no doubt will hear many of the County council minions standing up for there bosses, but this is only a ruse to hide their own over inflated wages as well. 

Next time your council tax drops through door, at the end of the month as it happens, bear that in mind. You might also want to bear in mind the disgraceful conditions of schools throughout the county, lack of Police on the streets, lack of funding for old folks homes, and care for the disabled, social services etc 

So next time you're driving over a pothole in the road, or walking down a street with no lighting in the wet and rain with no Police presence, tripping over uncollected rubbish, remember the 'Fat Cat' that is allegedly responsible is probably sunning himself at your expense in sunnier climes.

Wear incompetence like a badge of honour

Dear Ed,

I disagree with Algernon. Managers who do the job properly and discharge their responsibilities fully ARE worth the money. It is those who vacillate their duties and responsibilities, seem to wear incompetence like a badge of honour, and still claim their salary are the ones who need to be named and shamed.
