Just received details of this years Council Tax, think they are taking the mickey, Police up 7.7% , when was the last time you saw a Police Officer other than whizzing bye in a car ? South Tyneside Council, Roads like Roller Coasters, Councillors who do not return phone calls or emails, Officers who are incapable of effective communication’s, letters and emails ignored, phones not answered, formal complaint procedure ignored, absolute waste of space !
