The article telling us Brighton and Hove City Council will not be publishing the City News for the rest of the financial year (The Argus, February 23) raises the whole question as to whether tax payers actually need such a publication.
When most of us are cutting back in order to pay ever-increasing council tax, surely our council should also be pruning non-essential services and reducing operating costs?
We are all painfully aware our current big Government requires big taxes and perhaps we can now expect smaller local councils with reduced council tax bills.
Perhaps the council would tell us how much the City News costs us.
