Somerset council is struggling to reduce its £350 million debt has hired a cost cutting consultant on salary of £700 a day the six month contract will earn Lesley Ottery about £181,000 the council will also have to pay £100 a day in agency fees and expenses. This from a conservative lead council that is axing 1,500 jobs Mrs Ottery is a former business service manager at West Sussex Council a council spokesperson said the she is delivering many millions of pounds in savings. I just hope that the people of Somerset show their disdain by refusing to pay their community charges.
