Divina De Campo Instagram – Hello, After over a decade of austerity we are seeing councils filing a section 114 notices. Meaning they are out of money to provide services. Some people may say this is just because of mismanagement and while not all councils are well run the reality is councils overall have lost 40% of spending power and many have had up to 63% of their core funding from government cut since 2010. That’s £6 out of every £10 of core funding cut. That means that every area of the work councils have to legally provide is at capacity, in that same time demand on social services (which local government is charged with providing) to its highest ever with 1.98 million requests filed With an ageing population a reduced workforce and external costs rising councils are not only struggling to pay for care but to also recruit staff to provide that care at basic minimum standards. #dragqueensdonthurtchildrenvotingtorydoes #drag #ddc #councils #socialcare #dragrace #dragraceuk #fundingcuts #section114 #politics #money #peoplebeforeprofit #fundsocialcare #bankrupt #toriesout #gtto
