After 3 years of arguing, why don't WNC and NNC just swallow £20m each from reserves? They could then concentrate on running services efficiently and cost effectively. I note that the low tax Tories of NNC are again raising council tax by the maximum they can.....
When the Conservative councillors bankrupted the County Council leaving just under £1bn in debt, we re-elected those same people to have another go with the new unitary authorities! Either we are a very patient and forgiving electorate, or we are stubbornly partisan.
The unwanted gift that keeps on giving. A Unitary set up no one wanted, was not voted for, set up by a bankrupt Tory administration (some still in council) and yet here we are being held to ransom by the same administration...... It it wasn't so serious it would be laughable.
