Diminishing returns

Something which caught our eye from the Council meeting on Wednesday was a brillian example of the Council's fiscal insanity. Apparently, last year they spent over £17,000 advertising their "on the spot" fines for littering and graffiti policy, and are yet to even make 10% of that cost back in enforcement of the policy.

Such brazen waste of public money is exactly why we're worried about the blackhole in the Woolwich Crossrail financing plans. If the Council spent as much time actually doing things as they did trying to show us that they're doing things, we expect this site wouldn't have to exist.
