Over the past few weeks viewers of this blog will have noticed that I have been making various attempts to pay my council tax.
First of all I had to apply for a single person's living allowance. I have been making various calls to the council on this matter without being able to get through a single time. I have called in to the council offices in the Blackpool town centre to speak to somebody but on every occassion the queue has been in excess of 1 hour long.
Yesterday, I called in again to the council offices to be told by staff that this was their busiest period and that there was a considerable queue. To my astonishment out of 15 slots available there was only 3 people available to speak to - in their busiest time!!!
Yet again, this shows the lack of resources the council is prepared to afford the Blackpool council tax payer. Instead the council leaders would rather spend our money entertaining the holidaymakers and hob knobbing/lining the pockets of showbiz entertainers.
In a recent poll it was clear that Blackpool council is failing the local residents badly. Time for Julian Kearsley and his incompetent cronies to be relieved of their overpaid positions and replaced with more suitable members of staff.
