As others have said, they are unaccountable for their actions as LBL remains a one party non democratic state.
Now what they should explain but they won't, is why the Chief Exec was forced out of post after six months in the job, only to be quickly snapped up by another borough. so clearly he must have been good a good candidate to get the job in the first place and then by the other London Borough (and how much was the pay off that council tax payers have had to stump up?)
LBL happily waste money needlessly but then cry they don't have sufficient funds to provide services the community needs and requires. To make up for the inefficiency they then duly increase council tax year on year. We pay MORE and what do we get, even LESS. And before someone starts blaming central Government, LBL needs to look at itself.
What LBL actually needs is pulling a part, division by division and then being put back together. Local Government are jobs for life with great pensions, so somehow I can't seem them doing that to themselves.
Yeah, democracy review, keep on taking the dreamies.
