‘Remember taxpayers’

Dear Editor:

I have worked in the private sector for most of my working life I have also been a councillor.

I have a major concern about the push for public sector workers to increase their wages and benefits. The private sector taxpayers who pay all the bills have had two-plus years of trying to keep themselves and their business operations open.

Some have gone bankrupt and most are hoping to look forward to a better future, so if you wish to strike remember the private sector taxpayers.
