I Have to agree with Alun on this one regarding the opportunity cost. You may have noticed in the news lately that there is a care home crisis going on as most local councils are under server pressure due to cuts in funding from central government.
Each year for the foreseeable future Wrexham council will have to make real cuts in services. Fact!
You can’t say we should cut fat cat executive pay or trim perks for councilors and that will solve all the problems because it won’t. Although it may help a bit and it would be good for them to share some of the pain the common folk feel day to day that alone will not solve the council deficit.
I can see where everyone is coming from regarding plas madoc / splash magic but everyone wants to keep all their local services and have no reduction in spending whatsoever. But I can tell you now that’s not going to happen long term.
Long term we are going to see some really harsh cuts in Wrexham which will have a hugely negative impact on peoples lives. You can’t keep spending more than you earn or you’ll got broke.
