Local Government Ripoffs

Elderly gentleman in a tiny retirement flat in Diss paying £1300 plus in Council Tax so that local councillors, who in the UK are officially unpaid but who in fact receive 'allowances' of up to twenty thousand pounds a year, can spend his money on  their pet projects. That gets my goat, Hastings is another council that's expensive, but I'm sure Diss and Hastings are not alone, just two that I happen to have experience of.

What is this passion for devolution and more and more layers of expensive bureaucracy? Has the UK has gone completely mad?
