Wirral Council Tax - higher bills for less services

The unholy Labour Liberal alliance encamped at Wallasey Town Hall have proposed a 3.5% increase in the Council Tax for Wirral households.

This is on top of £13.5 million cut in services being imposed on the Borough.Despite this the Labour and Liberal Councillors voted for an increase in their own Allowances bringing the total payable to our elected representatives to well over £800,000!

How can this be correct when there are over 100 staff of WBC facing redundancy?

For those who have never seen a Council report before a quick tip :- “efficiency savings” = cut in staffing or services
