Politically correct ‘non jobs’ cost the taxpayer £600million a year

Politically correct ‘non-jobs’ costing the taxpayer almost £600million have been advertised in the past year, it emerged last night.

The 15,700 posts were offered by local councils and quangos in the Guardian newspaper’s controversial ‘Jobzilla’ Society section.

They paid an average salary of £38,000 – a fifth more than in the private sector.

They included a raft of politically correct jobs, according to the TaxPayers’ Alliance pressure group.

Examples ranged from a community empowerment network programme manager at Thurrock Council in Essex – paying almost £30,000 – to assistant chief executive (value for money) at Charnwood Borough Council in Leicestershire.

The latter post – supposed to save the taxpayer money – pays £55,000 a year.

In November alone, Hackney Council and the East London NHS Foundation Trust each offered three separate equality and diversity jobs paying £39,030 each – a total salary bill of more than £225,000.
