WHY IS IT, when they place our libraries and other services under such threat of closure, do the executives of Dorset County Council still attract perks of lease cars and private medical care support amounting to £17,391... on top of combined salaries of £657,426, shared between six of them?

We mortals pay for our own cars and use the NHS. On these salaries they could quite easily do likewise, when all around them are sharing such hard times. Few people in normal employment get perks like this.

Salaries of far more than £100,000 a year are quite over-the-top.
