WHO is to blame for all the foul-ups we read about in your paper? Mr B White (Letters, January 2) suggests that Councillor Ashley Whalley doesn't want to recognise that there are people out there who are able to think logically.

If Coun Whalley does think in this direction, he is probably right -- because the people who are to blame for the endless problems over the years are the electorate themselves.

Year after year they keep putting the same people into power. When will they learn?

My advice to them is: it's time to vote off the weakest link.
