It's either higher tax or you cut other services, which one?
There are 12 libraries in Brent so they are closing half. That still leaves 6. Not great I know but it's not like they are getting rid of all of them. 270,000+ people in Brent btw.
I just wish that all our local councils actually involved the taxpayers. And say. Right this is the money we have what do you want us to provide. Then we'd actually see how everyone thinks rather than just a few. If everyone wants to spend the money on Libraries that's fine, but let people choose!
I know in some areas people would rather have their bins emptied regularly or money is spent on other things.
