IT is not very often that people in Wirral can enjoy the success story that New Brighton’s transformation has given us.

I did not think that, before long, a very Baldrick-type cunning plan would come along with meter charges, meter installations, meter collections and fines.

This will inevitably lead to reduced income for all the new customers.

A better solution would be to sack "Baldrick" and his advisors and reduce the number of councillors by half.

Wirral would be back on the road to recovery a lot quicker.
