Oh no, if it isn’t the consequences of their actions!

All our council money goes to shitty private firms like Qualis. How about we nationalise all of those companies and stop paying their parasitic shareholders?

Qualis, I’m not paying you another penny until you fix my fucking roof.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Dozens of MPs, including more than 40 Tories, have written to the PM demanding extra funding for councils in England to avoid big cuts to services.

The group say they are “exceptionally concerned” at the measures many local authorities are planning as they try to avoid going bust, including raising council tax and cutting services.

There has been growing concern across the local government sector about council funding, with particular pressure on the cost of providing care for vulnerable adults and children, as well as housing services.

In December, the government announced the amount of funding it plans to make available to councils from April, and said it represented an average increase of 6.5% compared to the year before.

The group of 46 MPs, which is made up of 44 Conservatives as well as Labour’s Daniel Zeichner and Liberal Democrat Sarah Dyke, includes former ministers Priti Patel, Robert Jenrick, Greg Clark and Damian Green.

Ben Bradley, Conservative MP for Mansfield and leader of Nottinghamshire County Council, told the BBC the chancellor should use the next Budget to increase funding for local government.
