THE Government is suggesting a shake-up in local government (February 9). How could John Prescott be so nasty as to suggest that we endure a further two years of hell under a Liberal Democrat council?

On the other hand, this could give them another two years to get something right, but even this will not justify the faith we had when we elected them or restore the faith that we have lost since.
