I think it is safe to say that ‘cuts’ could now be painlessly made at Brighton and Hove City Council, who have reputedly spent £10,000 on a special website to advertise four nonsense jobs that each commands a salary of ‘£125K’. Not only could each of these nonsense jobs be dispensed with – no one would notice any difference – but it was quite inexcusable to waste such a large sum of money on advertising. My website is far better and hasn’t cost anywhere near as much! Most outrageous of all is the complete lack of taste and sensitivity on the part of those responsible. Why have they felt it necessary to insult one of our national institutions, the inoffensive ‘Quo’, who have contributed many an anthem to our collective consciousness and even played in front of royalty? Since the culprits are Brighton and Hove Actually, I suppose they were never going to say ‘Fans of Village People need not apply’.
