SIR - Does Councillor Mallinson never read the letters page of your esteemed chronicle?

The Bishop of Bradford is saying more eloquently and fiercely exactly what the majority of council taxpayers have been saying for months.

Shame on you councillors, for Bradford's sake get your act together and start working for the benefit of Bradford and its citizens.

Being a councillor is not a sinecure - start earning the money you pay yourselves out of our taxes.

Mrs E M Gibson, Moorisde Gardens, Eccleshill
