As a council tax payer rather than a council tax spender, the latest hare-brained scheme of making films of nine people's daily lives in opposition to Big Brother must surely take the "squanderbug" award.

Apparently, they intend to preach energy conservation and recycling.

Witness, street lights blazing 24 hours a day, haphazard rubbish collection (without recycling) and the opinion that only they should be allowed to drive to work and then park for free.

Time for them to get off their high horses before they fall.
