No power to the people

Lead by Lewes, I don’t think so!  Image via Wikipedia

One of my concerns at the moment is the possible move of local democracy from Hastings borough council to the county council at Lewes. This is something the Tories have talked about in the name of saving money with absolutely no thought about what impact it might have on local people who will effectively no longer have a say at local level. Local demoracy works best when it really is local!
