To quote one commentator ironically: "Obviously, we need to bring in some American consulting firms and privatize everything."

Yeap.

The Lib Dems have recently taken over from this Conservative-run council to try to sort the finances out. Is anyone still peddling the tosh that the Tories are the government of sound money?

‘Minimum service levels’ for sectors under anti-strike law. But will it apply to govt? Will they commit to minimum safety levels in ambulance, fire, education, border security, transport? The strikers are protecting us from #ToryMismanagement. #r4today

"Additional funding" is a meaningless phrase when you have starved the NHS of cash for the last 12 years. #ToryMismanagement #r4today

"‘I can see Britain being a member of the EU again’: How Brexit is returning to UK politics"

The Atlantic:

"How the UK Became One of the Poorest Countries in Western Europe
Britain chose finance over industry, austerity over investment, and a closed economy over openness to the world."

Quite. Twelve years of Tory incompetence have ruined Britain. Britain is following Argentina's path - without the World Cup wins.
