A simple analogy in this country is potholes. Fixing piecemeal is cheaper (efficient) in the short term, but more expensive in the long term.
The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.

Mark Zuckerberg claimed content moderation went too far at Meta, and it’s time for a change. Its platforms will no longer rely on third-party fact checkers, instead copying the “community notes” feature from Elon Musk’s X.
Meta is getting back to its roots, apparently.
In a video on Tuesday, its chief executive Mark Zuckerberg announced changes to content moderation across Facebook, Instagram, and the company’s other platforms. Meta will be getting rid of fact checkers and replacing them with community notes, similar to what you see on X, the social network owned by world’s richest man and onetime cage-match challenger Elon Musk.
Zuckerberg, in his video, claimed that “we’ve reached a point where it’s just too many mistakes and too much censorship.”
“The recent elections also feel like a cultural tipping point towards, once again, prioritizing speech,” he said. “So we’re going to get back to our roots and focus on reducing mistakes, simplifying our policies and restoring free expression on our platforms.”
I guess that's any possibility of a MZ billionaire bout laid to rest then.

Think what? We'll see what he does and can make our own judgments.

Eliminating the councils is cheaper still.

Good point. Do away with councils, do away with council tax and get your servants to do the dirty work for a pittance.
Seemed to work in the good old days.

Given he was talking about cutting $2 trillion, he's going to have to close most of the government down I would have thought.
Either that or he's just making up big numbers to sound impressive.

Seems like someone has read my post.
"X allows users to switch between a feed of the accounts they follow only, and an algorithmic feed, dubbed “For You”, showing content that might match their interests and previous activity. The more Musk engages with content about the UK from the far right or niche sources, the more he will be served similar content in his “For You” page, according to experts.
“Musk has seemingly become the first tech leader to fall down the rabbit hole of radicalisation by his own product,” said Bruce Daisley, former head of Twitter’s operations in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

So it's when he's asked where the $1 trillion dollar cuts are coming from that he can keep his mouth shut.

"Probably won't" 😄

If I was a UK politician asked about Musk's latest ill-informed witterings I would just respond with "I respectfully suggest he turns his attentions to finding the efficiency savings he has promised US voters and seems to be unable to deliver rather than getting involved in the politics of other countries".

Look up the interest payments on the debt, sure he should have been more forthright with the doge savings. You can't argue with the fact the can is getting too big to kick though.
Yeah, just a reminder, dog nappies, do the right thing. I don't deserve shit on my shoes.

Yep, it would be worse not to do anything. Same goes for a lot of countries.

You think the savings are going to be used to reduce the debt?? You poor innocent child.

It's worth saying that costs at Twitter (excluding debt servicing) are presumably lower than they were before he took over.
On that basis, he has a track record in cutting costs.
It's also now shit, so there is that on the negative side.

I didn't say that.

So what were you agreeing with then?

The need to cut government expenditure.

As I read it I did: he referred to doge savings.
In any event, your point is what?

The former chief prosecutor did say Gordon Brown told forces to ease up on prosecutions so who is lying ?
Biggest uk scandal in my life and it requires a national inquiry.

Another one?
Do people want an inquiry or do they just want heads on pikes? What do they think we will learn that we don't already know?

What is needed is action to be taken based on a 7 year investigation.
Another investigation is just kicking the can down the road.
