A council department has overspent and the money must be clawed back.

MORE cuts to service / MORE job losses / MORE debt payments.

Can you guess which political party runs this council, readers ?

(The words "cuts" / "job losses" and "debt" should be clues !!!!!)

Orign - 'thestar' - from somewhere up north


(now multicoloured ITK world news!!)


Sad to live in such a small mind and place......

very sensible...investing in the future... unlike Tories who should only ever be in charge of counting coloured pencils.

Required reading for ITK :

History. And why our grandchildren should be paying off debt!

This is NOT investing in the future, hedda ... its simply WASTING resources.

MOST of the future money will go on debt repayment NOT on improvements to services.

We have seen this so many times with Loony (ooops ! given the game away !) councils / governments. Spend today (to buy votes) - and leave the debt to someone else.

Why do you think ALL the poorest areas are Labour controlled ?

How can you tell the difference these days?

Other than the order in which I would exterminate them, of course.

presumably because the poor vote Labour hoping they may improve their lot and the rich vote Tory to maintain the status quo.

You are a worry. I'm not even sure you should eb in charge of a corner shop.

...... which just proves how incredibly stupid they are !

Labour continually waste money (on loony schemes / projects) and have a vested interest in maintaining poverty (so they have an electorate to appeal too).

They want everyone to live in silly little Council "boxes", wear the same clothes (uniform) and go to the same (failing) schools - just like their communist counterparts and heros ... while their University educated leaders all become multi-millionairse (and no doubt vote Tory !)

Tories want to give privilege to everyone - no matter what your background.


You are a worry.

Those who speak sense usually are !

Well, Labour should NEVER be in charge of public finances !!!

Here's yet another example - £83 million wasted !

NOTE - All towns involved are loony-controlled !

A Council deputy leader (representing the loonies, obviously !) has stood down whilest allegations are investigated by police

The deputy leader of Rotherham Council has stepped down over claims he knew about a relationship between a girl in care and a suspected child abuser.

Jahangir Akhtar's decision follows the publication of one woman's account of being allowed contact with the alleged abuser from 1999, when aged 14.

The Times newspaper reported Mr Akhtar is related to the alleged offender and was aware of their relationship.
