00:00The council where I live are good, because they've just built a skate park for the community and stuff, so there's a lot going on there.
00:07They're involved in the community and stuff, and we've got a nice community centre.
00:12Yeah, so the council where I live is pretty good.
00:16Yeah, you wish the councils would spend money a little bit better.
00:19It does seem that a lot of money gets poured into things that don't actually affect people's day-to-day lives,
00:23but also I don't see behind the scenes, so I can't speak to that.
00:26But yeah, I would perhaps like to see maybe some reduced salaries, maybe some reduced waste,
00:31and actually put that money where people can actually see the impact of their council tax.
00:35Yeah, but there's a lot of children's services that are not getting the monies that they probably should be getting.
00:39There's lots of cutbacks, and sometimes we need to prioritise what is the most important things for our communities.
00:46Do we spend something in the short term or the long term, and that sort of thing.
00:49So that's something that they've got to work out.
00:51Do they invest in something now to prevent the problems that we've got in the future?
00:55I think that's the juggling up that the politicians and the councils have got to sort themselves out.
