A voting attraction

Earlier this evening, I took a few moments to vote in the council’s Pride of Place poll for people to chose their favourite tourist attraction in Swindon. I was only the sixth person to do so. However, as a government idea to encourage people to connect with their council it seems rather trivial. If the government really want people to connect with their council they should consider giving back to local councils the many powers they have transferred to ministers for the last ten years.
