The Budget setting Council Meeting ended predictably
The Budget setting Council Meeting ended predictably. The Conservative used their majority to push through their Budget proposals. The meeting was lack lustre and it felt at times as if we were simply going through the motions. As usual we, The Liberal Democrats proposed an alternative budget. I know it had no chance of being supported by the Conservatives. I do not think that is really point rather it is an opportunity to tell our residents that despite financial constraints it is possible to propose initiatives that really help local people and still freeze Council Tax.
