Birmingham are failing – what do people expect, for Gawd sake? Now this will be a real test for the new administration under David (call me Dave) Cameron.

The Council via Councillor Len Clark, head of children's social care:

Mr Clark said: "We know we are not good enough yet, we know more needs to be done and we know what we have to do to improve.

"But there is no quick-fix solution to the problems faced in an authority the size of Birmingham.

"Birmingham has a track record of turning around services and there is determined political will to resolve this issue and achieve our goal - a world-class children's social care service."

Last week the council said it estimated it will have to make £230m of savings during the next four years.

In February, it announced up to 2,000 jobs could be axed during the next financial year.

Unions warned that the cuts could place an unprecedented burden on social workers, making it harder for them to visit people at risk.

Cllr Clark, with all due respect you are talking out of your arse – you aint got the first fucking clue, and the answer to the size of the Council is to divide it by half (at least).

Not even Ofsted, those super-human intelligent (sic) quango-crats from hell could misunderstand an utter fucking disaster when it hits you full frontal in the face.

C’mon (call me) “Dave” – sort them out for fuck sake. In 18 months time it will be only yet worse again – believe me.
