Re: Just before the robbing Tory budget
With just seven days to go until the fateful 'emergency' budget, the axe is hovering at HBC and several projects look set to be chopped.
I for one will not be sad to see the back of the Whitebirk Phase II project, a lovely little piece of bureaucratic empire building and totally unnecessary. The job creation estimate kept going up in line with its unpopularity until it was over ten times the original figure.
An unnecessary bus lane on the A666 - ta ta.
The house-building scheme when we have an offical figure of 2,000 empty properties - bye bye baby.
A new car park at the Civic Theatre - erm....
The big question of course is the Area Management calendars - will they or won't they face the axe?
