"Anon" who apparently worked for the Council, doesnt even know who has controlled the council for the past 4 years! It is still a Tory controlled council, they have 6 out of 10 seats on the Cabinet

Correction - it's a Tory/Labour coalition but nevertheless, Cabinet is dominated by the Tories and there is a Tory leader so hardly a Labour council.

Whilst I'm sorry to hear about your contract, you can't really blame the Labour party - Cumbria County Council isn't a Labour Council, it's a Conservative/Liberal Democrat coalition.

Cumbria County Council seem to have made it their aim to increase the unemployment figures in west cumbria. It has awarded our contract to another county, thus ensuring nine of us are out of work. That is a labour council for you. I wouldn't expect anything less.
