I should point out that basic councillors only get an "allowance" of about ?9k pa, although they get extra for every additional committee or whatever they sit on or other duties they undertake. In the interest of transparent government, it's probably all clearly set out in some obscure cornere of the LBL website.


Excuse me, nine grand ? I'm not eastern european !
This must be a mistake. I could get more money working in Sainsbury's.

Only those people who are so far up their own rear-end, so hyperinflated with their own ego and self importance would work as a counciler for that type of money. All I can say is any extra earnings (Nudge, nudge, wink, wink, say no more) that could be part of the job must be very, very good indeed !!

Would I get more money for being an honest counciler ? Revealing any skeletons in the closet first, before the 'FH Bugle' trys to expose me ?
Or is my political career over before it's even started ???


It's an "allowance" not a salary. Most of the junior councillors also hold down a normal 9 to 5 job as well - or at least part-time. Those who do it full time are intent on climbing the greasy political pole.

Just on the subject of regeneration, there are loads of places more in need of regenerating than Forest Hill - which is why we don't get so much money/council attention as other wards with a higher index of deprivation. Believe me, this is affluent compared to other parts of Lewisham. And then I went to work in Brixton....
