Self Service Council

Libraries are currently being closed and converted to self-service so that librarians can be made redundant and money saved.

Why stop at Libraries - thinks Cllr Jackson? The latest idea the second hand car salesman has come up with is self service gritting. This morning the No 58 bus to Arnold had to be diverted due to black ice, but I can now report the service is back to normal following gritting of the public highway by Nottingham City Transport. The advise is to carry a bag of grit if you want to use Nottinghamshire roads.

Why stop here? Soon we'll have self service schools (turn up if you want) self service hospitals (do your own operation) and self service courts (I sentence myself to 2 years). Plans are well advanced for self serve care for the elderly.

I understand the one department which will not go self service is Council Tax collection.
