Wiltshire Council to Abandon Sport and Leisure Facilities

On Wednesday night @RussellHawker an independent councillor on Wiltshire Council, Tweeted that the CEO of Wiltshire Council was a tad upset that the Wiltshire Times had broken an embargo on a report about Sports and Leisure Facilities in Wiltshire.

Wiltshire Council is a monolithic super council covering  500,000 people and if anyone can tell me it is a local council then they obviously do not have any comprehension of the geougraphic size of the county. It can take several hours by bus to go from one location to the other.

I support the Wiltshire Times in printing this article, today @duncanhames LibDem MP for Chippenham retweeted from @gilest about closure. Here is the article

The fact is that the #Condem Coalitions plan called  Bull Shit  Big Society is a con  is disingenuous if the council cannot run these facilities how do you expect the small rural communities and market towns of Wiltshire to support them? If the people and communities cannot afford to run them; will they then be sold to the highest bidder?

Is this just  another way of doing them up to sell them off to Business privatization through the back door? Is doing Business the #condem way is Thatcherization with a vengence? By 2017 Wiltshire Council will have divested itself from Sports and Leisure Facilities and possibly Libtraries etc as now this has started where does it end?

If Wiltshire Council dumps its duties and responsibilities like this why does there need to be a council? Let alone a Beamoth like WC determined to destroy its community capital.
