*banging head against the desk* We already have obscenely few! Denmark has 98! Norway has... 369? Finland is similar to Norway! Slovakia has over *2000*! Why are we in the UK so utterly, utterly hostile to local democracy? "We want efficiency savings" is peak cost of everything, value of nothing!

It's the Clacton by-election! If you're voting, don't let Farage win. Farage wants to: Protect blood sports; Ban rewilding projects on productive farmland; Abolish Net Zero targets; Scrap EU-derived environmental laws; Lift the fracking ban; Grant new oil & gas drilling licences.
