Suffolk County Council: Wasting money

last night I attended the latest attempt by Conservative run Suffolk County Council to persuade people that a single unitary would be best for Suffolk. No members of the public attended!! There were 3 County Councillors, 4 District Councillors, 2 senior officers, 1 Town Councillor and the wife of a County councillor.
Otherwise, no one.
I was told that the best attendance so far is 9 !!!!
The County are wasting taxpayers money hiring venues, wasting staff time and pushing a propaganda for their preferred option. It is disgraceful. The sooner this issue of local government review is put to bed the better. The public are not interested while councils (not Babergh to their credit)concentrate on protecting what they see as best for their own power bases.
