John joined library staff and users at a protest agianst the Tory council's policy of replacing experienced staff with volunteers on Monday. John thinks replacing paid staff will reduce the quality of service in local libraries.
John said, “This is about the future of our city; our ability to get young people interested in reading, both now and in the years to come. We all accept tough decisions and efficiency savings have to be made. But the Tories are making a choice to cut the things that matter most to the local community, while protecting their own pet projects. They’ve got entirely the wrong priorities for Southampton.”
