Y Cneifiwr: In praise of community councillors

Y Cneifiwr: In praise of community councillors: "In the political pecking order community and town councils are as low as you can get, and as with so much else in life, that's where a lot of the hard graft and the dirty jobs get done that nobody else wants to do. They try to keep the place tidy; they run the village halls; they get called out when there's a burst pipe in the community centre; they badger the county council to come and fill in pot holes; they put up Christmas lights; mow grass and sit through lots of boring meetings on miserable winter nights. They are certainly not in it for the money - there isn't any, and they have next to no power."
