Carmarthenshire county council in the dock

Jacqui Thompson has taken out a petition so people are able to film live meetings at Council meetings.

Perhaps most people would rather film a footie match rather than these boring old cunts but it is a good way of ensuring that the minutes of proceedings at meetings are correct and free of 'Correcting'. To use a biblical analogy.
I agree fully with Jacqui who was actually taken to court by the council. Filming by anybody in the audience or a set camera for web use would be a step forward in the interests of transparency. Something many politicians may secretly disapprove of. But in terms of public value the reverse will be enacted.
