Introduction
Covingham and Nythe Ward is an Electoral Ward in Swindon, Wiltshire, England, within the area of Swindon Borough Council.
It has approximately 4,500 homes and 7,500 electors registered.
The ward covers Covingham, Nythe and the southern tip of Coleview. The boundary of the ward is mainly contained within Covingham and Nythe. The only complexity is among the houses that fall within Coleview.
Parishes
It is covered by Covingham Parish Council (Covingham) and Stratton St Margaret Parish Council (Nythe and Coleview). The latter parish is one of the largest parishes in the country and covers a large area of the North East of Swindon.
Elected Swindon Borough Council Representation
There are three local Swindon Borough Councillors' seats for this ward. Currently, there are three Conservative Councillors (Cllr. Dale Heenan, Cllr. Glenn Smith and Cllr. Phil Young).
Parliamentary Constituency
The Ward is primarily within the North Swindon Parliamentary Constituency, however the Bullfinch Close and Pheasant Close (and accompanying off-shoots) are within the South Swindon Parliamentary Constituency. As part of the boundary changes this is going to change to North Swindon along with the rest of the ward. It makes sense that both the local Borough ward boundary and Parliamentary Constituency echo the same boarders. Information on this can be obtained from the Boundary Commission for England web site highlighting the changes for Swindon.
Schools
There are the following schools within the ward
*Nythe Primary School
*Nyland Special School
*Covingham Primary School

The Money Masters is a 1995 documentary, produced by Patrick S. J. Carmack and directed and narrated by William T. Still. It discusses the concepts of money, debt, and taxes, and describes their development from biblical times onward. It covers the history of fractional-reserve banking, central banking, monetary policy, the bond system, and the Federal Reserve System.
Argument
The film argues that the profit from issuing money is currently being used in the United States to benefit a few wealthy individuals. It goes further and argues that this situation should be remedied, so that the profit benefits the public good, as during four periods in the history of the United States. Finally it presents a bill, the Monetary Reform Act, to implement such a remedy. As support, the film provides many quotations from notable figures including economists, members of the financial system, kings of England and United States presidents.
Private central banking and fractional reserve banking
The film criticises fractional-reserve banking and the control aspects of both modern banking regulation and centralized banking systems such as the Federal Reserve System. It describes the history of money and banking, how central banks came to be and how they operate.
Money creation
The film describes how the U.S. Congress gave the power of money creation to private banks through the Federal Reserve Act and how the banks accumulate large amounts of interest using this power. It asserts that wealth is slowly being drawn into the hands of a small banking elite at the expense of the general population.
Federal Reserve gold
The film argues that there is no publicly owned gold left in Fort Knox because the gold belongs to private banks as collateral against the U.S. national debt. The film argues that since the gold was accumulated by prohibiting its possession, the public's gold has been stolen by private banks. The film also asserts that this gold was used as collateral against government loans used to escape the Great Depression and that the majority went to overseas banks who used it to fund Nazi Germany.
Depressions
The film asserts that the Federal Reserve System enables private banks to force recessions at will by refusing to offer new loans while simultaneously demanding payment on existing loans. It asserts that this power has been used a number of times since the 1913 creation of the Federal Reserve, resulting in several depressions.
Media control
The film asserts that by the end of World War I, private banks owned and controlled much of the United States' media, paper and film outlets and that they achieved this using consolidated wealth generated by fractional-reserve banking. It argues that these banks have influence over the mainstream media through their ownership and that this influence is used to prevent the financial monopoly from entering the general public's consciousness.
Tax
The film touches briefly on the U.S. federal income tax. See also Tax protester constitutional arguments.
Monetary Reform Act
By way of conclusion, the film presents an option for a different kind of monetary policy for the United States, the Monetary Reform Act. The film suggests that fractional-reserve banking and the Federal Reserve System be abolished in favour of 100% reserve banking. These reserves would come from the government, which would issue non-interest generating money to repay the public debt to the banks. This would happen over a gradual period of one year. As the government repaid its debt, the banks would be required to hold the government's new money as reserves and the reserve rate would slowly be increased to 100%. Thus, there would be no inflation or imbalance in the amount of money in circulation. The issuing of new money would then be controlled. In order to prevent inflation, issuance would be according to population statistics. After the public debt was repaid, money that would previously have been interest on the debt would be distributed by the government as a tax refund, leading to the abolition of income tax.
