About this episode
The UK government is introducing fifteen new unitary councils in south and east England, replacing forty-three existing councils. These changes aim to streamline local government, drive economic growth, and speed up housing plans. The new councils will serve populations under five hundred thousand, with decisions on East Sussex and West Sussex on hold. Critics argue the changes will hike running costs and disrupt services, while the government sees it as a chance to modernize boundaries. The first changes are set to kick in by 2028.
