THE chief executive of Brent is taking home an astonishing £205,000 heading a group of 18 council fat cats raking in a combined salary of nearly £2.5 million a year.

Brent boss, Gareth Daniel who earns £60,000 more than the Prime Minister and a staggering seven times as much as a newly qualified teacher working in inner London, who takes home £27,000 a year.

A further four more directors including Martin Cheeseman OBE, earn more than £140,000.

The shocking figures, obtained by BBC Panorama under the Freedom of Information Act, will come as a further blow to the borough, which is already reeling from an expected 400 job losses and £90m in cuts to services.

Libraries, day centres for people with learning disabilities and advisory groups have all fallen victim to the drive to slash costs, and more services are likely to have their funding trimmed

LETS STOP THE FAT CAT WAGE BILL, SACK Gareth Daniel AN Martin Cheeseman OBE  AND USE THE SAVINGS TO SAVE OUR SERVICES!
