Incompetent councils lose money and spend it on the wrong things. The council where I live "lent" millions of ££ to a neighbouring council because it was going bankrupt, and our council nearly went bankrupt too! Some officers of the Council 'earn' over £100,000 per year and that's where we need to start cutting back. What do they do for that money? Local councils are becoming like the EU with unregulated and ill-equipped people who don't know what they're doing.
Just travelled to my local town had my car battered by pot holes in the roads but im quite happy with that knowing mustafa is comfortable in a four star hotel
Out of interest what degree did you achieve, subject and grade.i suspect none and probably no qualifications at all, council's are funded mostly by central government top ups most of our money goes on housing benefit to parasite's, sorry landlords and a myriad of other supports for people who don't get paid enough to live on
It's called gross misappropriation of tax payers money, without any accountability, and gross failure to provide public services, as is their duty. There needs to a full independent!! Financial enquiry, into where our money is being siphoned off to, because the evidence of neglect is irrefutable.
The problem with Birmingham city council are down to incompetence and not funding. It's the same with most LA's that get into financial difficulties. We need more transparency on where the money is spent and better controls to stop waste.
Exactly. So easy just to add it on to the 'blame everything on the Tories' pile. These councils need to be accountable for their own failures. They receive enough money and have enough autonomy!
In June, the council revealed it had paid almost £1.1bn in equal pay claims in the last 10 years after it lost a case at the Supreme Court in which female employees said they were not paid bonuses that were awarded to men on the same pay grade. The council has a current liability relating to the claims between £650m to £760m, accruing at a rate of £5m to £14m per month. The council also said that “Birmingham had £1bn of funding taken away by successive Conservative governments.”
@andrewharris4129 probably a good thing they didn't receive it as that wouldve been frittered away too! The whole system is a mess. Poorer people in poorer boroughs have to pay more in council tax than richer people in richer boroughs. The 'neediest' boroughs have the most social housing and the JAMS who live there who arent in social housing foot the bill. Were all the councils in the UK doing brilliantly then 13 years ago? They need to manage themselves better - same with the NHS. Plowing more and more money in is not the solution. Not everything in life is the Tories fault
@johnkitching2248 spoken like a TRUE LABOUR VIRTUE SIGNALLER. While grants from central government were cut, rates of council tax, set by individual councils, were allowed to increased. The councils rake it in, they are just very bad at managing it. 1998-2007 Labour were last in power and that decade closed with the NHS in financial crisis, in spite of the greatest increase in expenditure the NHS had ever seen. In this last 13 years the increase of our population has nearly doubled compared to what it was in the last Labour government. Labour had it easy and then set the pace for 13+ years of playing catch up. Now naive virtue signallers like yourself want to take us back there, spend everything we have just so we can pat each other on the back and say how virtuous we are 🤦♂️
This problem was started in the late 90s by Blair and Brown and continues today with Sunak and Hunt. Different coloured ties same agenda. We are being betrayed. Accountability is needed.
It would be nice to think that they would have to give up Woke, being unable to afford it any more. It's more likely they will give up everything else first though.
A lot of this is down to the councils being badly run. What is needed is an audit of these bodies as to how they spent taxpayers money and while we are at it the same for the NHS.
@@stevec6427 Try looking at what they have been spending money on like £40 a mile for a taxi to take children to school. The councillors running the councils are responsible and the idea they can take credit for good news but blame the government when things go pear shaped is daft.
The social budget is the big spend, paying every man and his dog to be a carer, another benefit that’s used and abused. Social care departments are out of control, too many taking out and councils quite willing to dish it out. Absolutely no accountability with council spending on anything, serious auditing is required.
It's the first steps to a welfare state which Labour will create. Housing Association properties used to be a cushion for people to stop them from falling too low and give them a platform to launch themselves back into work and a decent life. Same with benefits. Now it is an entitlement and people are told they have a home for life. And every extra child they have increases the house size they will get! We've created a monster which makes the country nothing whilst costing a fortune
I know someone who does this, is disabled, his partner is his carer so she gets paid, they also get a new car modified to accept a wheelchair every 3 years.
@@Bill-dj4sj that new car you talk of is provided by a charity not the government the only thing the gov pays is a monthly mobility cheque between £26 and £71 a week that does not cover the whole cost of either the deposit , adaptations , insurance , repairs and maintenance let alone the full retail price of the vehicle

36B on track and trace.. you couldn't have spent that much if you made 10 storey piles of cash and had a bonfire in every city centre in the UK. OUR money
This issue should focus attention on spending where it’s really needed rather than vanity projects. Good housekeeping is the same no matter who holds the purse.
Sadiq Khans a different problem but Rishi Sunak is breaking the law in Britain. Prime Minister or not he's not exempt from the law, why aren't we challenging that? Why are the other royal members sitting down and discussing having him removed from office and a hung parliament? Why aren't the Labour party all over this and hiring competent and trusted lawyers and legal advisors to apply for Sunak and his party to stand trial in court? Yeah Tory members would have to testify, tell the truth. If they cared about this country even just a tiny bit they'd all do the right thing and abolish this madness and defend Britain. The reason they're not is because they're cowards.
One thing is for sure we the public can not afford any more to support wasteful Councils, fot example come to Wales and see miles of cycle tracks no one uses, or round abouts fitted with walkways that begin and end on duel carriageways, madness.
I work for my local council and the management across all departments are starting to put the blame on those who are the lowest paid and on the front line. Making threats of being sacked. They’re asking us to be under handed and fine members of the public to bring money in!! I kid you not.
The wages, bonuses and massive pensions of council leaders & myriads of management are several reasons as to why councils are going bust. The sums involved are eye watering.
stop councils spending on woke projects, cut head of departments stop paying chief executives more than prime minister gets. STOP housing foreigners who have just arrived into UK. Adopt the australian way.
Ethnicity of council? Ethnicity of city's population? It's all so bloody obvious. Why should a city need central government support. A city is a place of high population density and presumably high local taxation take.
When your the cashcow of the world with free healthcare for all something will give , and here it is they can barley milk anymore cash out of the tax payer or aociety will fall. TIME TO START LOOKING AFTER OUR OWN .. FIRST.
I am a Brummie but my city has been devastated. Roads and rubbish all dire. However, an area doesn't make a place, the oeople there do. We have far too many with zero respect for either others or their environment. We can't blame the youngsters with sweet wrappers etc it's adults. Many who have disgusting habits and behaviours.
The issue of rubbish is to some extent a responsibility of the public if you don’t drop it or dump it you don’t have to pick. It up It’s no rockets science but people have no respect for anything these days people can save the councils millions by taking there rubbish home rather than throwing it out of the car window people need to take responsibly for some stuff and that’s the easiest one to do . Go to a proper rural back water it’s tidy no rubbish go to a town or city. It’s a dump. The only difference is the mentality of the individuals living there A poor person can live in a pigsty but it can still be clean and tidy and welcoming TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR SURROUNDING

So people who have paid into the tax system for decades before becoming too ill to work are getting a big fuk you from the Tories and the most vulnerable in society are going to be driven further into poverty….When they are cut off their benefits, they’re probably gonna end up homeless at some point…..That’s good news to the Tories though, as that’s more free accommodation for the invaders.
“When a man is fleeing from his country, due to fear and danger, he brings his wife and kids with him.
When a man is going to war, he leaves his wife and kids behind.”
The cash has probably ended up in Pakistan.
How many Council Officials are paid more than the PM. Ffs.??? Hundreds is the answer and for what????
The decline continues.
Keep on paying Tax Payers as the UK Political Class is on Mission to extract every last penny
you have.
With Local Councils paying their CEO's 400k per year with Gold plated Pensions and Executive Directors
200k plus per year for being nothing more than Yes men then your starting to get the picture.
And then you have those Council Directors taking early retirement, a 500k handshake, and then 18 months
later are back as Consultants on 3k per week for doing absolutely nothing.
54% of collected Council Tax goes on Council salaries, Pensions, Police, Fire Brigade, and some scraps
for Elderly Care, before a single penny is spent on emptying a bin.
More and More so called Council Services will disappear as they must keep paying the
ludicrous Salaries and pension for all the 3rd rate Management employees who have arse licked their
way into their Positions.
The UK is deliberately being driven into the Ground as part of the Great Reset due to the fact
that 649 MP's are nothing more than paid for Clown Puppets all doing what they are told.
The citizens need to withold all payments until a democracy is put in place.
Here,Here,my sentiments exactly, 💯 bang on,the waste and Corruption by Councils is off the Scale,you could actually do the Clowncil for Fraud by misrepresentation,for claiming CT is for essential services,when Half of it is to feather their over inflated pay and pensions
Well said.
For democracy to flourish it must have an incorruptible bureaucracy.What has Britain got under Tories?
Labour run council?
Proof that austerity has failed
its called OVERSPENDING on welfare claimants! More welfare than working, so no tax for the overspending!
13 years.
This is how you bring down a country...pure and simple. Lift God up in your schools; in your families and in your workplaces! Turn to God not politicians.
but its worth it to fight Putin!
Some powerful interests are benefiting from that war. The majority of the people are getting the shaft.
Fed up of this country’s government, they make me so angry the mps
These are local councillors.
What a broken country. If I was younger I'd leave, everything falling to bits and nothing works.
Who can be accused of failing to invest in there own country over the last 50 years? That would be successive governments.
Get ready for council tax increase .
Well, the government has put inflation through the roof and are cutting the funding to councils ...
Can the councillors be held liable for any mismanagement. They are surely guilty of dereliction of duty
36B on track and trace.. you couldn't have spent that much if you made 10 storey piles of cash and had a bonfire in every city centre in the UK. OUR money
Becoming a modern day 1984 dystopia sadly
Woking Council - develop huge amounts of expensive commercial property that no one wants to use?
I said that when I watched them dig the foundations. Gross eyesore.
That's the LibDums for you
Because the government told them to and let them
@@RichardFraser-y9t No, Woking Council broke government rules
Don't bother talking to politicians, go to the WEforum for your future.
When you allow accountants to run the country this is what happens .But we can afford millions on illegal immigrants.
I agree can we ask Ukraine corrupt nation in Europe for our cash back plz China won't buy our national debt anymore
Third World Britain, vote Labour or Conservative and receive more of the same, not in ten years no in 2024.😢
This issue should focus attention on spending where it’s really needed rather than vanity projects. Good housekeeping is the same no matter who holds the purse.
Sadiq Khans a different problem but Rishi Sunak is breaking the law in Britain. Prime Minister or not he's not exempt from the law, why aren't we challenging that? Why are the other royal members sitting down and discussing having him removed from office and a hung parliament? Why aren't the Labour party all over this and hiring competent and trusted lawyers and legal advisors to apply for Sunak and his party to stand trial in court? Yeah Tory members would have to testify, tell the truth. If they cared about this country even just a tiny bit they'd all do the right thing and abolish this madness and defend Britain. The reason they're not is because they're cowards.
No one dares to go against Sunak because they worry that they might be called a racist.
Sounds like we are going back in time to the Victorian era !! there was me thinking i had a good future.....
One thing is for sure we the public can not afford any more to support wasteful Councils, fot example come to Wales and see miles of cycle tracks no one uses, or round abouts fitted with walkways that begin and end on duel carriageways, madness.
I work for my local council and the management across all departments are starting to put the blame on those who are the lowest paid and on the front line. Making threats of being sacked. They’re asking us to be under handed and fine members of the public to bring money in!! I kid you not.
Marv needs lining up against a wall
I live in Canada and it’s a mess
I hope no one is surprised.
London Bridge is falling down. Code for Charlie has just died.
The wages, bonuses and massive pensions of council leaders & myriads of management are several reasons as to why councils are going bust. The sums involved are eye watering.
Setting the stage nicely for digital currency and social credit scoring. Wheres all OUR money gone ?!
These councils are a gravy train of fat cat mega salaries. 💰💰💰
Get the conservatives out
Trying to finance anything in Britain is like picking up a handful of sand and watching it slip through your fingers. Bureaucracy and corruption.
Wasnt it the Queen who initiated litter picking back in the day? She would be turning in her grave at the state of it all now
Il be dead by time any government sorts this out, we either stand up or shut up. Nothing will get done if we don’t force it.
What's the excuse they lost European funding. How many different faceplates has Birmingham City Centre had over the years. Looks very nice, thanks
stop councils spending on woke projects, cut head of departments stop paying chief executives more than prime minister gets. STOP housing foreigners who have just arrived into UK. Adopt the australian way.
First step, remove all the deadwood
If we are paying for streets and roads to be cleaned then yes it matters a great deal.
Incompetent councils not the government.
Stop the war in Ukraine and bring some money back
Look at what they were spending on just one child and just one taxi firm it will make your eyes water
But diversity’s a strength! How could this be?? Unless 🤔
The obvious price of Neoliberalism.
No doubt they will be cutting the Lollypop man's pay and not the people at the top.
So long as we keep taking in the boat people and feeding them and giving them phones and giving them pocket money, more than pensioners!
Millions allowed in not working. Boy that’s a mystery why there is no money for local authorities.
Remember the job of politicians is to take money out of your pocket and give it to corporations.
Ethnicity of council? Ethnicity of city's population? It's all so bloody obvious.
Why should a city need central government support. A city is a place of high population density and presumably high local taxation take.
Too many people do not pay council tax, and you can probably guess who they are.
If birminghams council is bankrupt then what is bedfordshire council
Sadeqe can bail these councils out easily from all the money he's making on all the illegal immigrants that he's letting in simple?
Lesson to learn is - When the councils are looking into it, they are still getting paid to do it. On every occasion.
Whilst at the same time council tax is at an all time high!
And all other taxes.
They need money to pay for welfare. Increasing taxation is one way to rake in more money.
As always, follow the money
They can go into their offshore account
Bonuses and pay rises across councils don't help, back room deals for friends of friends. Corruption at the top, a few people need to go to jail
Despite robbing everyone of extortionate amounts of council tax
When your the cashcow of the world with free healthcare for all something will give , and here it is they can barley milk anymore cash out of the tax payer or aociety will fall. TIME TO START LOOKING AFTER OUR OWN .. FIRST.
I am a Brummie but my city has been devastated.
Roads and rubbish all dire. However, an area doesn't make a place, the oeople there do. We have far too many with zero respect for either others or their environment. We can't blame the youngsters with sweet wrappers etc it's adults. Many who have disgusting habits and behaviours.
The glut of stupity & financial 1:34 waste at local authorities is beyond belief.
The issue of rubbish is to some extent a responsibility of the public if you don’t drop it or dump it you don’t have to pick. It up
It’s no rockets science but people have no respect for anything these days people can save the councils millions by taking there rubbish home rather than throwing it out of the car window people need to take responsibly for some stuff and that’s the easiest one to do .
Go to a proper rural back water it’s tidy no rubbish go to a town or city. It’s a dump. The only difference is the mentality of the individuals living there
A poor person can live in a pigsty but it can still be clean and tidy and welcoming
TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR SURROUNDING
Go woke go broke!
Britains Falling to bits. Correction. Britain's falling to bits. It certainly is, especially when you can't spell! The irony!
