It is quite clear, if this report is correct, that South Somerset District Council is spending money on the wrong priorities.
The very idea that putting up a poster to advertise a village coffee morning, providing they are taken down again, is not an anti-social activity. In fact quite the opposite is true, you can argue that the coffee morning is doing something for local community cohesion.
Still, it now seems the Council want to spend money sending out silly notices and having enforcement officers specifically undertaking the task of patrolling rural villages instructing village halls to take down their notices.
Please, can we have some common sense.

There must be some inbreeding going on as all these jobsworths,in whatever locality,seem to be missing the common sense gene.
Do the “elf and safety” bureau have some clinic where all new staff are “cleansed” of this offending gene?
Oh and happy birthday Kevin
