Welfare system 'failing to meet minimum thresholds for a dignified standard of living'
Cornwall Council job losses ‘devastating blow’ so close to Christmas, union says

CORNWALL Council’s announcement that over 100 employees will lose their jobs so close to Christmas is a “devastating blow,” their union Unison said.
The council said that the job losses were a part of its bid to save £48.6 million under its draft budget for 2025-26, approved by the local authority’s Conservative cabinet in November.
It is battling against bankruptcy like that faced by other authorities including Birmingham, and said that a 45-day formal consultation will be launched.
