The unkindest cut of all - a callous disregard for voluntary groups! - Waverley
Residents will be disappointed to learn that Prime Minister Cameron's vision of support for the "Big Society" has not filtered down to his colleagues at Waverley. Although Waverley boasts of its own sound financial position Conservative Councillors, at the Borough Council's budget meeting on Tuesday 15th February, showed a callous disregard for the financial plight of key voluntary groups in Waverley. At the budget meeting a Liberal Democrat amendment to re-instate £43,000's worth of cuts in Waverley's grant to the Borough's voluntary sector was rejected by every Conservative Councillor present.
