DEFRA sent Local Authorities to Police our industry.
"Local Authority employees are not Police, they are representatives of an unaccountable corrupt institution."
What’s wrong with local authorities, why don’t they work and what’s wrong with the people who work for them?
After we got through Covid without the appropriate funding, we entered a recession and a cost of living crisis.
With inflation hitting everything we buy and our energy costs going up, every small business has been under threat of closure for several years and many have resisted passing on the costs to our customers but have absolutely no wiggle room for spiralling costs.
Local authorities have dealt with this problem by raising our Council taxes.
After a decade of austerity and the promise that BREXIT would reduce red tape DEFRA wrote a dozen rules which reduced everyone’s income and then they ordered local authority employees to enforce a massive government overreach, an increase in red tape and unjustified government interference. Local Authorities sent out licensing officers to enforce the new regulations without any training interpreted dozens of pages of rules to mean anything they liked and held businesses hostage until their lunatic demands were met.
The perfect circle: DEFRA claim it’s not their responsibility to clarify their own regulations or put Local Authorities right.
Businesses try to attract the best people to surround themselves with to create effective efficient teams - local authorities just attract the worst and then train them how to be truculent unprofessional liars - And this is the playbook and standard response whenever things went wrong.
Dozens of delinquent councils had to be contacted and a complaint lodged - In almost all cases across the country, the usual dance of lies and denials is their first port of call.
