SIR – Labour Council leader David Green complains in his letter to the T&A (December 6) that Conservative Councillor Debbie Davies was wrong to state that the Council trade union figure is £500K, and that it is less than half that.

Well, that must still be at least £200K and, in the present economic climate that, Councillor Green, is £200K too much.

Once again your priorities are totally wrong, but it seems that sadly this is par for the course.
