There has been some comment about the proposal to switch off some of the street lights that we currently pay for.

Isn't it time that Shropshire Council undertook an exercise to find out what the taxpayers' priorities are.

Care for the elderly, for example would come out a high priority whereas public art may not.

My suggestion is to do away with the expensive and unnecessary post of chief executive and save around £200,000 per year.

If £165,000 a year for street light savings is worth it, then so is this.
