[QUOTE=g jones;677005]Within 4 weeks of gaining power in 2002 we were given a Tory report saying how bankrupt the Council was. It is on record we began cost cutting in July and redundancies in August (from June) ***why would we do that???**. The Audit reports for 2000, 2001 and 2002 say the Council has significant financial weaknesses.

Andrew - once again you're wrong in desperately trying to float the sinking ship Tory.

I would add for clarity - The Labour finances of 2002 and 2003 balanced and was signed off by Peter Britcliffe. Explain that as the Tories weren't in power that year!
