Isn’t this a waste?
10:30am Wednesday 19th September 2012 in Letters By Reader's letter
A FEW months ago my council flat was repainted on the exterior, including door and window frames. This all looked nice and it never came cheap.
Last week I had a visit from another contractor wanting to measure up my flat for double-glazing windows and door.
Am I missing something here? Why would the council pay to have my windows and door painted when they knew a couple of months later they would be replacing them anyway? Recession? What recession?

Your letter epitomises the utter waste perpetrated by our council.
But then its not their own money is it ?
So why do they care.
They wouldnt last 2 min in running their own businesses. Bankruptsy would follow on quickly behind practises like this.
