The article discusses concerns about the potential dissolution of Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council as part of a broader review of local government structures in Warwickshire. The review, led by the Warwickshire County Council, aims to explore the possibility of merging or reorganizing the existing district and borough councils into a unitary authority system. This has raised fears among local residents and council members that their borough could be "scrapped," similar to the fate of turkeys at Christmas. The council leader, Kris Wilson, has expressed opposition to any changes that would eliminate the borough council, emphasizing the importance of local identity and representation. The review process includes public consultations, with the next phase involving discussions on how services could be delivered more efficiently under different structural models. The outcome of this review could significantly alter local governance in the area, potentially leading to the loss of the borough's distinct administrative identity.
