Would it not be a wonderful gesture that all council officers and councillors gave back 15 per cent of their salaries and kept their colleagues in work, keeping the system going and just being more friendly?

Why not ask for volunteers to do these jobs? There must be many retired people who are more than capable of asking the right question.
Another way of saving money is to cancel all contractors and agencies and have all work done in house.
