It's nearly two years since I first crossed swords with the bosses at County Hall over precisely how many people who relied on Cornwall Council for earning a living would soon lose their jobs.
The number has been something of a running argument ever since. Today I got the latest headcount statistics, which I think tell their own story.
- 31 Dec 2009 20,994
- 31 Dec 2010 19,479
- 30 Sept 2011 16,367
That's more than 4,600 jobs in less than two years - relatively few of them compulsory redundancies, but household incomes nonetheless - with 3,100 in the first nine months of last year alone. I've asked if there is a target.
