5,000 of the remaining 10,000 tickets went to locals the rest went "elsewhere"

the show generated about £270,000

this cost every local person who didn't go £40 for the privelidge

the head of the Lib Dems arranged 2 overnight off site meetings, 2 miles from the council offices , these involved overnight stays and in one case a wine bill for 3 people running into several hundred pounds


the concert thing I think was to boost their egos and the hotel/wine as sleazy as anything from MPs

T'was a good evening though

Didnt realise thats what it cost them :/
