In an extremely embarrasing letter to councillors, Tory Leader of the Council Cllr Louise McKinlay has been forced to admit that transferring Brentwood's highways function to Harlow has not worked. The letter admits a number of key failings, including:
I am sure you will agree that these are difficult times for people across Britain. Labour's financial legacy has left Britain needing to borrow an extra £400million, every single day, just to get by. Labour also left us paying £120million in interest on our debt each and every day - for that we could build a new primary school every hour. Wolverhampton's share of the country's debt now stands at a dangerous £8.38billion and something needs to be done.
On 27 April, Chair of Chinese Lib Dems Merlene Emerson took part in a radio debate at the studio of Spectrum Radio in Battersea on the AV referendum. DJ and former MEP Candidate Steven Cheung and Joseph Wu of BC Project co-hosted the lively and at times heated hour and a half debate which will be broadcast over the weekend.
Residents of Wolverhampton backing a change to the voting system are stepping up their call for reform as the campaign to win the referendum goes into the final week.
Oh dear. You always know when the Tories are getting desperate at election time when you get a glossy leaflet through your door (this one entitled "SAFEGUARDING BRENTWOOD'S FUTURE") which is full of articles attacking the local Liberal Democrats.
