Jeff Jones wants less council

Now that most Welsh council are controlled by Plaid, Liberal and Independent parties Labour’s Jeff Jones and former Bridgend leader wants a reduced number of council authorities. Is there a connection, I leave that up to you but to me it sounds that Mr Jones is throwing his toys around. Why not go a little more and have PR for council election or remove all social services and educational department form local government and have it all looked after by the Welsh Assembly. Social services would have more of a link with the NHS and children would be taught by the same standard and have the same amount of money spent on them. Also there could be a national schools policy, keeping them open or closing if there was a need.
