When is this gross mis management of public funds going to stop and when are the people responsible going to be held accountable?
Please let it be sooner than later.
What we need is more visibility of who are actually responsible - for a start you could ask the Department for Communities and Local Government why, in a year when they raised the local government Revenue Support Grants by an average of 4.2% (a bit above inflation), West Berks only got a 1.75% rise (well below inflation)? Leaving a large chunk of inflationary increase to be funded from the Council Tax.
