      No shit, after 14 years of austerity and shifting costs from central government to local authorities they have found every single penny left in the budget because they have no choice. The „waste“ touted during election campaigns from the usual suspects is mostly „spending money on thing I think it shouldn’t be spent on“ rather than inefficiency.

      Funnily enough when in power they find that the populist talking points mean fuck all in the face of reality

      The only waste of resources is Reform itself. Every council they are running proves this.

      To the surprise of absolutely no one they found nothing to cut but we had Reform shouting about how they would be saving a fortune any day now for months, absolute clown car of a party.

      They did it wrong. They are meant to ask every employee to justify their existence then sack them anyway.

      I believe they did the same in Durham and campaigned they would cut ‚DEI‘ costs and found there wasn’t any. However I think they’ve discovered if you just make stuff up you still get voted in.

      Morons. Could ask any civil servant the state of things and theyd tell you we are as efficent as we already can be. Wtf more do these people want they offer no solutions

      There’s very little fat to trim at local council level.

      There’s the scandal of outsourcing, which Reform UK were unique in saying they were going to tackle, but then did nothing about.

      If you aren’t willing to tackle that, then you have to cut SEND provision for schoolchildren, or social care, or provision for the local homeless, or just raise council tax a lot, which appears to be what they’ve opted for, like Labour.

      Did it by any chance though find that Elon is in the Epstine files? „Girls FTW“ what about Trump are they still big fans of his after what we have found out?

      If 14+ years of tory austerity didn’t find it to cut… then it wasn’t there to be cut.

      Nobody sane is surprised by this result. Even the reform con artists should have already predicted this.

      Reform are a bunch of rowdy pub bores that “reckon” they can do a better job of governing than actual experience civil servants.

      I mean, anger at reform aside…. this is a good thing.

      It means not all councils are run badly, there’s just no money available. I don’t think that’s a reform or Labour thing to learn, every party needs to understand the situation at the moment.

      Reform understanding this should help them in theory now realise we can’t cut into oblivion… cuz there is nothing left to cut.
