Always a master at stating the bleedin’ obvious, we see that Swansea Council leader Chris Holley has opted to use the authority’s own free newspaper (entitled Swansea Leader) to inform the local population that “these are the toughest financial times for local government in a generation”. He then goes on to ask residents for their suggestions on service delivery and the priorities.

| a priority or just propaganda? |
We anticipate that one or two readers might take the opportunity to point out some evident savings available to the council through exercising better control over the freebie paper’s distribution. We hear that the same January edition has been mistakenly delivered to some city households for a third time in a month.
Doubtlessly the council will blame Royal Mail, who in turn will blame the weather or something. Neither organisation managed to perform particularly well for their customers and communities during the recent freeze – although they did keep the local press well stocked with PR bullshit claiming otherwise.
