I saw the chief executive of Hounslow Council - Bollinger Bolger as he is fondly described - is to receive a whopping £30,000 package increase taking his remuneration to £263,000. Mandy Skinner, assistant chief executive receives an increase of £23,000 taking her package to £220,000. The average salary of workers in Hounslow is £34,834, and council tax is being increased once again by the maximum permitted (less 0.01%) to avoid a challenge. How can this be right?
