Where did that money go?

In earlier posts, I have been writing about the financial situation in Wakefield. Here is something of an update on details of the chief executives remuneration. In the most recent year it seems that the chief exec earned more than the Prime Minister (although that probably does not take account of Gordon's expenses claim).

The other troubling thing for the poeople of Wakefield is that was comparable with twelve nurses, ten police community support officers, six RAF fighter pilots or five teachers, according to a local paper.

Whatever the figures, local taxpayers funded it.
