The day we get these ‘people’ out of power will be a good one..
Of course.
Tories gonna tory. Can’t have Liberal Democrats promoting a 4 day work week that benefits working people in the run up to an election. No sir.
“At the start of our trial we were carrying a £2m annual agency bill. During the first three months of the trial, we filled four permanent posts that had previously been impossible to fill. This has reduced our annual bill by £300,000”
Mhhh yea okay. I think people would have gone for those fairly above average salaries
So the minister ‘doesn’t think’ it shows good value for money, without any evidence.
And the council has evidence that it has saved money.
Is this just obstinate stupidity, or a directive that some rich people have decided that keeping the workers in their places is more important than anything else, such as actual cost savings, improvements to productivity, and better health and happiness of staff?
Actually, knowing this government, it shouldn’t be an *or* question, really. Both, is a highly plausible answer.
Tories: We have to get “value for money” for taxpayers
Also Tories: Oh look at that nice juicy £50B sitting in the public purse, be an awful shame if we gave all that to our pals
Just frustrating that it’s all done about appearances than actual results. It’s all about how it appears in a newspaper.
