Thanks for that Graham. With the consistent above inflation increases in Govt. funding and Council Tax increases and with the amounts coming in, in grants and allocations, one wonders how the council has managed to get itself into such a financial mess.

Extrapolate the figures that Graham has given over the remainder of the "30 years of service to the community" that HBC are so proud of and you really begin to wonder!

Why is there apparently so little to show for the hundreds of millions of pounds which must have flowed into the borough since it's inception?
