    £320m cuts will dismantle the structure of Birmingham City Council


    The swathe of cutbacks proposed by Birmingham City Council will see the most radical change in public services for more than 50 years, writes Public Affairs Correspondent Paul Dale.
    To describe the £320 million Birmingham City Council must save from its budget over the next four years as a mere cuts package is a little like suggesting a heart and lung transplant is nothing but minor surgery.
    What is being proposed is no less than the dismantling of local government as it has existed for decades – steamrollering through the most radical changes to public services since the welfare state came into existence 64 years ago.

      Interesting article. And I have to agree with how cutbacks will see radical change to public services - I think we're going to witness major change to the structure of our local government.
