I don't know, maybe if shelved the nonsense term "expat" and called Brits who emigrante "migrants" as they are, as I was when I left the country, people may pay more attention to it. Just a random thought

🛑 PANIC MEASURES: Council officers have now ordered an immediate halt to all "non-essential spend." (e.g. preventative work that saves money in the long term)
This policy will grind services to a halt, punishing residents for the Administration's incompetence and political instability.

📉 THE DECLINE: In just three months (Q1 (end June) to Q2 (end Sept) the forecast overspend has gone up by 66% from £27.9m to £46.5m.
The Council's own report admits this scale of failure is "unprecedented" and a "critical risk" to our financial resilience.
