    Councillor do not get paid but do have an allowance and basic allowances are published
    every year in the Northern Echo. It is just under £8,ooo pounds a year and councillors get
    extra allowances for more responsibility.

    For 2009./ 20010 the councillor basic allowance was £8,026.92. But for that I can be on call any day of the week. I have had phone calls for help at 8pm on a Sunday evening before.
