Pay up or reap what you sow. In Finland if you're fined for speeding you pay up according to what you owe depending on your wages. Good. Of course the police and council aren't doing enough. Despite the frustrating inefficiency there's absolutely no way they can cope. Oliver and Olivia Twist are being delivered in increasing delinquency. It won't stop until you dig in. We pay balls-all tax and it's got to change. As a massive Francophile I've learned that from a cheap, ropey and yet incredibly rich nation, by raising tax you can turn half of your nation into something that looks and runs like Switzerland. Oh, and they pay more tax get paid more, and work less. Go back to your Daily Express x -
Hello all, I received a knock at the door yesterday. When I got to the street door, and opened it, I saw a letter poking out of the letter box. I asked this guy who he was, and he went on about bins. I asked him again where he was from, and he replied "southwark council" I asked the council officer why he was not wearing any ID, he pulls out his ID from his jumper, shows it, and tucks it back into his jumper. I told him, he should have his ID on show at at all times, and he replied "oh no, someone might grab it" Not really impressed, these were clearly not engagement workers, but a couple of office staff. I work for a neighboring council, we would routinely, always have our ID badge displayed, weather infront of a household or in the street. We always wear high vis jackets, with our emblem printed on the front and back. We want to scream from the roof tops who we are. Southwark council seem to be a bit different. The lanyard which holds our ID badge have quick release, so even if someone did pull the lanyard, the lanyard would come apart from the neck. Whenever we are positing information to residents, we always ensure letters are fully posted into the letterbox. The last thing you want to do, if for a letter to blow away, or let burglars know, no one is living at the address. Come on southwark council, do better with your engagement, or don't do it at all. Very disappointing. -
