Their transport plan for buses is obviously not working.
Our village has lost 80% of it's bus timetable. We now only get 6 buses (3 each way) and nothing at the weekend. On the first day of the new timetable, 2 of the 6 buses didn't turn up.

They talk a good game but are basically incompetent. They should all just resign and let people that care take over.

Criminals

The first one to cause all our troubles was Hemali Gangani, she lied and lied which started the other SW having to lie and cover her back .

A high percentage of social workers are lying in their reports that goes unchallenged by the judge, because the secrecy of a 60 year old outdated law of private court means the corruption goes unchallenged.
How can you challenge the system when it's the system who you have to complain to.
Social Services are making huge mistakes and being allowed to lie, act corrupt because they need to meet their target of adoption, then their full budget is paid. In doing this they are legally allowed to take children illegally because they are not held accountable.
Not every child in the system is an unloved or mistreated child, some children you are offering up like a piece of meat in this advertisement were taken due to social services lies or corruption. The corruption that is hidden behind the privacy of family court. The same family court that are rushing cases through without considering evidence of corruption by social services that is presented by families because family courts are inundated with the increasing amount of cases social services have brought to them.
A high percentage of adopted children are being returned to the system because Social Services lied to adoption parents, claiming children have an illness such as autism when they in fact have drink or drugs withdrawal.
Not all social workers are corrupt liars and there are some who are in the job for the love of helping those children that really do need help , but the ones who are not corrupt are having their profession compromised because they feel obligated to protect their colleagues.
Foster parents are waiting ages for financial, physical or practical support for the children and a higher percentage are deciding not to foster anymore out of frustration from no support.
If you do not believe what I wrote,then please read the secret Social worker book. A book written by a social worker who could take no more of the corruption, so she whistled then left the job.
If you don't believe me , why have the number of complaints for each LA area risen dramatically.
Why will they not provide some of the money spent on fostering to support parents/ grandparents ? Why pour money into private foster care companies instead of using it to educate some of the parents ??
If they are not corrupt why will no one investigate them , why will they not reform a 60 year old law and open up a private court system into a public one that fits a modern day society? Lots of illegal criminal activity being commited by these people and the abduction of children for profit-child trafficking

This is as bad as it gets

You hear about Labour councilors resigning because of Starmer but you do wish these Councilors would resign for the lack of giving anything back to the community.
All they seem to do is take take take, just look at the state of the roads, schools, lighting, crime, i could go on and on, Hertfordshire used to be so nice but those days are long gone, do us all a favour and give someone else a chance. You all lack any integrity.

Complained that the path outside our property boundary was sinking forming a trip hazard and a ledge across our drives, council sent someone out to take photos their response was it's on our side of the boundary when you can plainly see the difference between our driveway and the tarmac of the footpath.
Since the section that is sinking is approximately three feet on the councils side of the boundary they cut the grass.
We have also been told to prove that it is on their side of the boundary my opinion is they don't want to own up to their legal responsibility so anyone trips and injures themselves recommend taking council to court.
Since my neighbour who shared the drive was in the process of selling the property could not help but agreed that something needs to be done since then they have sold and moved since review posted no contact or reply.
Does Hertfordshire county council even look at thes reviews 100% show 1star come on that has got to be the lowest thing going private sector directors would be culling incompetent staff.
