WHERE is this Conservative administration leading us to? It seems hell-bent on changing the council into an enabling authority and not a providing one.
There are now plans to outsource the janitors, the print room, the admin department, the information technology and the post room.
What next? The Oasis, the Link, the Delta Tennis Centre, followed closely by our golf and pitch and putt courses? Then it will be the highways, planning and legal departments. We will soon be ringing to some far and distant land for any enquiries we have about our services. Talking to people on the end of a telephone that possibly do not even know where Swindon is.
Is this what we paid Kent County Council £3m for?
Ah well, it will soon be May and instead of writing letters of protest one simple letter will do, X, placed in the right place will suffice.
