Local resident Dave Coker has put together an excellent website here which sets out all of the Tower Hamlets councillor compensation over the last four years, including breakdowns by ward and party.
Although he has struggled to actually get his hands on the information, he has perservered and this is just the sort of transparency that local people should see. Perhaps someone living in every council area across the country could follow this example!

Over the last four years, really?
It's incredible!
Yes, it was over the last four years, don't be so surprised.
Yes, they should shine for a long time.
It doesn't seem to be there any more. Is there a copy anywhere?
