Yes well the council are renowned for their business excellence and never look to reduce costs by reducing personell do they?
You want to try working in Local Government, the opposite of your opinion is very much the reality! I've never worked somewhere as short-staffed as we are now. Anybody knows that local authorities have been cutting swathes of jobs in the last 18 months. It's been a right-wing ideological in this country to dismantle local government for years, and Cameron is getting away with things that Herr Thatcher could only dream of.
It's very easy to spout a few tired cliché's but in reality the majority of council workers do a very difficult job under extremely trying circumstances providing crucial services that are more important than ever during times of economic and social turmoil.

Funny thing is, I had to phone them up the other day and this is exactly what happened. For some reason they then put me through to Birmingham City Council?! I even said before hand I live in Coventry. For crying out loud, how dumb can the council be.
And the reality will always be that Turkey's don't vote for Christmas, so whilst Central Government dishes out the cuts, the frontline services-the staff that really make a difference-are the one's who get "streamlined".
