In response to the BCC article on the sunshine millionaire and the £130M that was apparently defrauded from Thurrock Council, I voice my opinions on the obligations that main stream media has to probe into why these situations are arising. Serious change is needed to the funding model in the UK for local authorities. The media needs to support this rather than only reporting only drama and sensationalised news stories.
