Deano - I've got no reason to support Lewisham Council but if you read through the latest issue of Lewisham Life I think you will find that very little of its content is 'vanity'. The vast majority of the content is purely factual telling people about Council services, their Councillors and 'What's On'. I believe I'm right in saying that as an economy measure, it is now only published four times each year. Seems reasonable to me that the Council should have a means of regular communication with its customers - how else should they have told us about the new recycling service?
