I just have one word.

Trams.

How bad must other Councils be?! 😯

EDIT: I know - more than one word.

Best Council award. One word: oxymoron.

I don't get to write oxymoron as often as I'd like.

This story has done something to redress that problem.

Statutory Notices : The biggest fraud case in Europe...

Top work CEC.

"I congratulate staff across the Council for their hard work and dedication to providing excellent services for residents that has led to these nominations.
"This builds on our success in the best efficiency initiative category at last year's awards and demonstrates a culture of real continuous improvement."

Has anyone ever had a reply to a letter written to the Council? Ten day response time notwithstanding.

Best is a comparative adjective, they don't have to be good, just better than all the other councils...

My vote:
Wandsworth. Cheapest council tax. acceptable services. That's all I need thanks.

Its all relative, how many other councils entered the competition? Most are probably too busy trying to justify their existence, I mean FFS West Lothian won it in 2006.

Edinburgh have two of the biggest muckups going as their responsibility at the moment.

Cheaper than Westminster? If so, I applaud them! 🙂
