Nash the trouble with most local councils is the cut backs they face at the moment take North Lanarkshire for example they have budget cuts that they decided to do over two year period why I will never know as South Lanarkshire and other have not done this. North Lanarkshire a making cuts to some of it's vital services and outsourcing them to private contracts and I think some of the grass cutters section could be affected in these cuts eventually that's if the cuts for these services goes to plan. Take the large mechanical sweeper vehicles that keep our roads cleaned they are getting outsourced and the people who will suffer because of this cut is the people in housing estates as these companies will only do the main drag but I could be wrong as this is just my opinion nash.

I personally agree with it's time to stop outsourcing-local-authorities-contract-services as it's the wee man on the street who suffer's at the end of the day!
