Welcome to Narnia

salaries
A fantasy world? A parallel universe?

The senior officers' remuneration disclosed in the latest Cornwall Council annual accounts really does make it look as if, for some people, stepping through the doors at County Hall grants membership to some exclusive club of lottery winners.

Chief Executive Kevin Lavery's total package, including pension, is £238,800 - about £100,000 more than David Cameron gets for running England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

More than 30 officials earning over £100,000? Someone's having a laugh...and it's not the majority of Cornwall Council's 21,000 staff, who are lucky if they make £23,000 in a year and who now face an uncertain future as public spending is slashed.
