THE New Homes Bonus was passed because Councillor Sherry’s cronies hold the balance of power. As one of the Councillors explained to me, I didn’t agree with it but what can I do, they would have simply voted against me and I knew it was the best deal we were going to get out of the Tories.

Also recently our most vulnerable are now being hit with changes made to council tax benefit. Why is it that those with the least are targeted by the Tories?

Ms Sherrey will say these changes come from central government but I would like to see the Council fight for their residents rather than turn tummy side up! Oh I forgot, this comes from Tory Central anyhow!

All this to placate the financial institutions – those who commit multiple crimes with impunity including tax evasion, Libor rigging, misselling and drug money laundering with no criminal prosecutions whatsoever.

You’re doing a fine job Margaret (won’t mention planning).

don’t take this personally but do us all a favour. and go! Let’s get some people into power that don’t care about left or right.
