SIR - To suggest that central prime parking spaces for council staff at £60 a year is a fair "perk" is nothing short of a scandal.

Non-council workers have to pay £6 per day for the privilege of using the remaining spaces and, I might add, the ones furthest away from the Butts as the selfish council staff grab the best ones before 9am daily.

This council is a disgrace. It bangs on about car sharing, cycling, public transport but none of this seems to apply to its staff.

A perk is a small reduction; half-price parking would be considered a miracle by most employees but this council offers a ridiculous discount.

If they want to give cheap parking to staff let them park in the middle of Pitchcroft.
