They will have to start taking notice because the build up to the next local election has already begun.Bell can’t freeze council tax any more, which has been his preferred vote winner. People have begun to notice that the level of services they are getting is declining rapidly, and simply blaming it on Tory cuts won’t wash any longer, especially as the 64% reduction doesn’t apply this year as they got an increased grant.Motorists have finally begun to realise they are being fleeced in CPZs now their hefty permit charge increases have been arriving.The proposed mega towers are widely disliked and any party that campaigns on a platform to stop them will garner good support.However, I would advise continued lobbying of your councillors about issues you are concerned about. They might not agree at first, particularly as many of them are quite thick, but come 2022 they will be desperate for your vote.
