I mean it reveals the lie that Reform were going to cut costs but it’s hardly good news for the Tories who ran both the council and the government into the mess in the first place or Labour who are in charge whilst pretty much all the councils slide into further financial chaos.

I don’t believe it. I distinctly remember being told that Temu DOGE would have councils rolling in money after eliminating all of that diversity e-learning.

So sacking diversity officers doesnt magically fix everything? Amazing.

Its all fun and games shouting about unnecessary spending until you are in charge then it all gets a bit harder than you thought.

So, how many Labour councils have a black hole in their budget?
Just asking for a friend.

What, so the lower level people of the party that thought Brexit & Truss were fantasic ideas can’t make the savings promised & instead made a deficit far, far worse?
Who could possibly have predicted that?

They will deliberately bankrupt the councils then use it as an excuse to privatise assets on the cheap to their mates.
And people want to give them the keys to the kingdom

Reform are dodgy as fuck.
Who would have thought that electing a bunch associated with 7 failed times MP Nige, and him famously known for not turning up to the EU fisheries committees, or his own constituency in Clacton would end up badly?

I thought councils were drowning in diversity officers and ReformUK was going to save billions getting rid of them?

The Tory government shifting more and more responsibilities onto local authorities, back in the day, combined with a party composed of people that don’t know what councils actually do. Was bound to happen.

The same Reform-led council that wants £100K spent on political assistants

This is just a taste of what these clowns will ‘accomplish’ if they get to be the next government.

Sure the country went up in flames but for a brief moment the liberals were really upset so it was all worth it
