How are they wasting it Millertop? Please give specifics as everything people have said at the moment seems quite generalised with accusations made against the council without anything tangible to back up where waste is actually really happening.
there are quite in depth reports online such as this breakdown of how the council are spending our money (see Council tax Guide pdf):
http://www.rotherham.gov.uk/info/200...l_tax_pays_for
as well as extensive justifications that councils now have to give. It would be helpful if people pointing to wastage could refer to these actual financial commitments and say where the wastages are.
There is even a public consultation on what suggestions local folk have as to where they feel their money should be spent - have you and all others concerned on here completed this so the council take your views on board?

Can't say that I've noticed that the litter situation in Rotherham is any better or worse than anywhere else that I've recently visited... some posters seem to have viivid imaginations...
Paying for professional advice which is then dismissed
Paying out for accommodation/lunches for meeting (which some have been well over the top)
Having new equipment/stationery just because they have relocated, absolutely nothing wrong with the old stuff (I’ve seen this first hand, I do quite a bit of work for council, nhs etc).
Has your council tax gone up, are you paying extra for garden waste, do you want to pay some more ragingpup?

No you wont!Ragingpup
I'll check it out and reconsider my views on this...
Thanks
The council don't think it will increase fly tipping, one of the many things that show how stupid and unfit for purpose they are. They've given in to pressure and will eventually be doing plastic collections thankfully.
