the first thing they tried at the agm was to say we take back all these services.it on our terms. you mentioned the meal payments. as we understand it, a handful do not have that money. more than a handful. i have spoken to d oze ns more than a handful. i have spoken to dozens still in hotels. anyone who had it, they were not made in time for christmas. the council cannot even make a christmas meal payment before 2018, and they are expected to run tens of thousands of properties? it is a disaster in the making. how difficult has christmas been for those in the area? it has been for those in the area? it has been unusual, i have to say. i was around the area yesterday. even though it is christmas, it is more quiet than usual. it has been more subdued for everyone. it has been more contempt —— contemplative. it has been amazing, the spirit. it will continue to be amazing, but we will continue to be amazing, but we will look after each other, even if the council will not look after us as it should be doing. thank you. we are grateful to you for taking the time to talk
