The Hull Daily Mail report:

City council officials have hit back at figures released by the Taxpayers’ Alliance showing the authority employed 270 staff earning more than £50,000 in 2011/12.

The TPA compared the Hull total with just 63 staff at the East Riding and 52 at North Lincolnshire Council. The data was compiled after the pressure group submitted identical Freedom of Information requests to all councils across the UK.
