“Grant Thornton has ‘questions to answer’ over Birmingham council bankruptcy”

George Monbiot, with his excellent critique of neoliberalism, needs to join me over these matters of concern:

For years, if not decades, Grant Thornton has been oblivious to or, actively supporting by signing off accounts that have been squandering taxpayers' funds on destroying transport infrastructure for TRAINS to only have them replaced by TRAMS!

Actively supporting and signing off accounts on the most expensive transport mode to construct (and subsidise) after High Scam 2 (aka HS2). I refer to tramways taking over two of our mainline railways and, an increasing number of bus routes as the 150 miles of Metro lines, £15 billion (2020 figure) to 2040 gets rolled out.

I have written to Grant Thornton, to the Brum Commissioners and to the WMCA but not one person is at all concerned! Are you, dear reader?!

"The fees for commissioners are set by the Department for Levelling up Housing and Communities (DLUHC). The fees are: £1,200 per day for the Lead Commissioner. £1,100 per day for the other commissioners", my Google search revealed.
