THE strong public feeling shown by residents in The Press against York Hospital facing penalties for missing targets got me thinking.

Isn’t it time that City of York Council’s cabinet members were set targets by a taxpayer’s body?

The difference from the NHS would be that the individual cabinet members would have to dip into their own pockets. It is, after all, taxpayers’ money that pays for their lives of luxury.
