Yeah most councils have been cut to the bone. Unfortunately, some still do waste money on endless crap, rather than trying to focus it on things that are needed.

the public toilets are a strange one, generally I don't know anyone who liked to use them as there were some morons who abused the facilities and after dark they became no go areas

Our local council invested in a new fleet of buses, all pretty basic apart from the one that ferries the councillers around, which is a top of the range model
