Counting the cost

PLEASE could you correct your article (Gazette, August 12) reporting that the signatures to the village poll are costing the village £3,500.

All we did was sign the petition which brought about the village poll.

The petition was written and proposed by the chairman of the meeting,

Chris Roberts, chairman of East Preston Parish Council.

He is now complaining of the costs that he has now imposed on East Preston parish.

That is why we wish the villagers to vote against this madness.

Editor's note: I can't see that there is anything to correct.

People signed the petition. The petition resulted in the parish poll.

The poll will cost 3,500.

East Preston council tax payers will pick up the bill.
