Скачать или смотреть Welcome to Rutland: 46M in Debt… But They’ve Hired a £42K WFH Diversity Officer...

Rutland County Council — the smallest county in the UK — is £46.6 million in debt.

So what do they do?

🔺 Raise council tax by 2%
🔺 Increase parking charges to claw back £250,000
🔺 Close the local sports centre, because reopening it would mean scrapping the flood officer or the climate officer

…And yet, this week, they've advertised two brand new jobs:

🚍 A Transport Communications Officer (just for transport) — £32,000 a year, remote
🌈 An Employment Diversity & Inclusion Officer — £42,000 a year, also remote, with the vaguest job description I’ve ever read

Let’s break this down:

💸 That money could’ve filled 576 potholes
👩‍🏫 Funded two teaching assistants
🚓 Paid for four unmarked police cars
🏊 Or simply… reopened the community sports centre

But instead, the Lib Dems and Greens at Rutland County Council chose climate comms and woke box-ticking over frontline services.

This is not governance. It’s parody.
