    Sadly this minority seem to be the ones who manage to stay working in the council for many years thanks to inept managers. These staff would not survive in a private company.

    I could tell you a thing or two about the amount of money the council wastes from what I’ve seen and been asked to do.

    I partly agree although i think that local councils have been forced to change in many respects and the so called wasters are, to the larger extent, not getting away with having an easy life and i certainly dont agree with the implication that this is unique to council staff.
    I hate this whole public sector v private sector debate and having worked in both,albeit it some years ago, there is good and bad everywhere but of course public sector = public money so i understand main focus on public sector although it is still unfair to generalise.

    I suppose the real measure will be demonstrated in years to come when more council services are outsourced privately. I suspect the focus then will be on profit and not service provision, and in some cases we may all long for the old days, no matter how many complaints we may have had.

    When you see 3 WCBC vans & 5 workmen at a house where a tap needs changing you do have to worry though.

    Waste come in many forms (I think the Japs got it down to 7 types) It appears Wrexham Council equate waste to refuse.
    It is clear that they are afraid to let us know how much money is getting wasted as they will only discuss it in private. ie consultant cost for leisure centres.
    They seem to think only in terms of cuts rather than looking at ways of being more efficient.
