Your question was “Do you think Lewes District Council should pay its workers a living wage?” when actually what you meant to say was “Do you think LDC should give their employees a pay rise?”

Good to see that the council is making some attempt to offer the taxpayer good value for money and it is good to see that wages are held in check. Let us also remember that public sector workers have been completely protected from the recession, having been paid over inflated wages during the Labour years, and now is not the time for more profligacy.
