THE public sector parasites that abound in our country have now been exposed in the Daily Mail, in conjunction with the Taxpayers Alliance. After all, it is at our expense.

The same newspaper, buy it or hate it, that exposed the expenses scandal in Parliament.

All over the country meals on wheels are being cancelled, handicapped children’s nurseries are being closed, National Health nurses and associates reduced to a one per cent rise.

You name it, they have financially hit it.

Their shameless, disgraceful salaries and expenses astound me.

Perhaps it is time to have the same investigation at local level to find out, with no disrespect or evidence to the contrary, that Swindon is not included in this catchment area of financial obscenity.

I await the replies that prove me wrong, but I won’t hold my breath on that one.
