This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Petition Review funding into public services. Local authorities, NHS,police etc need help
Working in the public sector I have seen a decline in the last few years and knowing what future budgets hold I fear for communities. Had funding been correct over the years then there wouldn't be issues such as complaints on GP access or lack of bin collections etc
