Costs of the Brent Magazine

Tory government minister has been busy putting out press releases claiming that Councils spend too much money on publicity.  He claims the Brent Magazine costs £1000 per month.  Given that Brent has more than 100,000 households in it, that would be less than a penny per household.  Given how important the Magazine is for key policies like increasing recycling, that is money well spent.

If you have not had your copy, please contact the Council using these details.

Well the council previously stated that the magazine was covering its own costs, now you're admitting that's not true.

I think the magazine is an essential service that residents value, but you could reduce that £1000/month loss by allowing people to opt out of the printed edition.
