Re: Real world underfunding

mine still has money to piss up the wall on public fireworks displays, music and poetry festivals, "LGBT history month" and many other crappy "cultural" services

Mine had several hundred thousand Euros to spend bringing the Tour de France to block the roads for several days plus more spent on various facilities around that. It must have totalled about £1m. Although they did mend a few roads as part of that so we got something back, even if they weren't the roads in greatest need.
