They wasted spent massive amounts of money refurbishing Macclesfield Town hall all new furniture, no coats to be visible. Silly cupboards in which you were supposed to hang you outside coats were not big enough for the staff needing them.

There are some functions are still joint as in libraries and Pensions and probably computer systems.
The costs of putting it back together would be horrendous. These costs would have to be set against the alleged £100 a year council tax savings.
