| Of course this is nonsense - we couldn't be judged (by a Labour government!) as the top council in the country if it were, since the level of council tax is not even taken into account when coming to that judgment. But Tony - sorry to be a bit techy and party political (look away those of you that get put off by this but in a marketplace it is important to have information about all competitors) - do you now repudiate your manifesto promise, 'We have no interest in raising council tax' (page 25) of May 2006? Would you have raised council tax between 2004 and 2006 despite your election promise of 2002 to retain the lowest council tax in the country? Can we believe a single word you say, and if so which one? You are the party which has been obsessed with low taxes, or at least obsessed with trying to persuade the electorate that Labour would not raise taxes. I wonder if you see why my colleagues and I cannot take you seriously when all this mock outrage seeps out? |
