Bude sea pool "a burden" - Cabinet member
Cornwall councillor and Cabinet member Mark Kaczmarek has upset the citizens of Bude with this email to a council colleague:
"There are many difficult decisions we as councillors will need to take regarding the proposed budget cuts, this pool has been a burden on the council tax payer for many years and is not a statutory council service. Regards Mark"Can't fault Mark for his honesty - no one could accuse him of trying to face both ways. And as an independent councillor for St Day & Lanner, he probably doesn't use the Bude sea pool that much. But not surprisingly, the question they're asking in Bude is if the council's leadership found a pot of extra cash to bail out Camelford's leisure centre, why can't they do the same for Bude?
