After years of austerity and denial under a new Reform UK council, a failing Send service was pushed into the spotlight by staff, unions and parents — culminating in a £1.3m funding boost and a 50% increase in front-line workers. MARTIN PORTER explains
THE fuel bill scandal exposes the rotten carcass of late capitalism. While millions face the choice between heating or eating, the big energy companies are predicted to see their profits increase to £170 billion this year. As the system fails, establishment politics stands naked, unable to manage a crisis of its own making.
