SIR, could I ask Coun Rod Bluh, through you, if it is true there will be all out elections in Swindon in 2012?

(This would mean all council wards electing councillors to serve for four years ending the expense of yearly elections).

Would he agree that it is pointless and a waste of money (in short supply at the moment) to elect, in 2011, a councillor to only serve one year.

This is something that needs highlighting now while it is possible to get government action to avoid a massive waste of public money.
