I'd get rid of all these different layers of local government, all of which seem to overlap on some things  :rage: we seem to have Welsh Assembly, County Council, Town council, Parish Council ?  all seems bonkers to me, I never know who does what  :rage:  So lets have just one layer, save loads of cash and spend it on Christmas lights (the only bit of Christmas that I like!) and grit the pavements and clear the roads D)

 $wales  So what we'll do Merddin is keep the Town Council and the European Parliament and scrap every thing in the middle  $eu

 ))* I forgot to say we had better hold new elections for places on the Town Council first  ££$

on the subject of Llandudno and xmas, there is still a Santa Claus halfway up one of the poles of the 'Llandudno Welcomes You' at the top of Penrhyn Hill. I don't know who owns him but it seems a shame to leave him out in all weathers

If you start e-mailing and criticising the Council, Philip Evans, Terry Davies, their cronies, and others will get you banned from e-mailing them.  You may even receive a written communication from them to this effect!

They just do not like criticism and will do everything to avoid it.   Even public criticism or complaints from people in the Community are conveniently swept under the carpet.

The odd Councillor who wants to get things done is browbeaten and gets little or no support.  The "old guard" rules the roost and will continue to do so until they are knocked off their perches.

Guess who is the Town and County Councillor for one of the most deprived Wards in Wales?   He is also the longest serving Town Councillor, so it just shows that all those years have produced absolutely nothing.

I'm not really sure where the statistics came from to label the Tudno, or South Ward as it was once known one of the most deprived wards in Wales
