Barnet Council approves outsourcing plans

A Conservative-run council in north London has agreed to award £320m worth of contracts to outsource back office services over 10 years.

Barnet Council says outsourcing services, including the council's call centre, payroll, information technology and human resources to Capita, will save it £120m over that period.

The controversial plans would result in the loss of up to 200 jobs.

A Barnet resident has instructed lawyers to seek a judicial review.

I suppose they're claiming it would otherwise have cost £440 million, possibly.

No mention whatsoever of the hit on the economy by producing a pile of unemployed people they have to pay welfare benefits too ofc.
Then there's all the shopping they won't be doing as a result and the complete loss of taxation by outsourcing to a corporation.
I could go on all night, life is just one epic fekking facepalm lately..
