Come on, Michael, try the Notional Health disService nex.
Less than one in five councils?
OK - say one in ten, so that means an awful lot of mismanaged councils, doing things they don't understand, making mistakes, spending money they don't have and getting paid for it!
Yup, just like central government!
Jannie - he's too slippery to risk that.
Scrobs - or even better than central government, they can just print more money.
And some of those bankrupt councils, we hear, are Tory run.
