@CreweNub Fairly certain this was the idea Ben Fletcher the C&N Conservative Party candidate in 2024 put forward during the election campaign.

The Govt. approved the business plan for Flag Lane Baths in 2022 yet two years later instead of the project being well under way the Town Board is discussing what to do with the site. #Crewe #LevellingUp #TownFund

[Crewe POV @CrewePov]

A more detailed report on Flag Lane Baths from Place North West.Demolition and re-allocation of the funding have already been decided. #Crewe #RottenBorough

[Crewe POV @CrewePov]

Astonished that Simon Yates is allowed to carry on as Vice Chairman of the Town Board when he is a member of the Always Ahead charity whose mishandling of the Flag Lane Baths project has been catastrophic. #Crewe #LevellingUp #MiddleClassClique

'Folks, too many of you are going university'

@Nigel_Farage tells @lewisUTBdenison that university should be free, but only if you study science, technology, engineering, medicine or maths

Rishi Sunak is now in the most impossible position of any party leader in any general election in modern history, following the disclosure in the Sunday Times that another Tory Party official, its data head, Nick Mason, is taking leave of absence, having been accused of placing multiple bets on the general election date. Even though he is the fourth Tory official or candidate under investigation by the Gambling Commission, Sunak and his team have been instructed by the Commission they are unable to say or do anything material in relation to the accused individuals. Here is the Tory spokes statement: “As instructed by the Gambling Commission, we are not permitted to discuss any matters related to any investigation with the subject or any other persons.” In the middle of an election, this feels inappropriate. Voters surely have a right to know the facts about the alleged betting since it will be material to how they cast their vote

@CheshireEast We want your views because we’re clueless and just keep getting in more debt @CheshireEast

[Crewe POV @CrewePov]

Now that the decorative panels are up around the old Library it is worth remembering that something similar was meant for the Queensway/Victoria St hoardings in 2021 but Cheshire East scuppered the plans. #Crewe #FlashbackFriday

Cheshire East also has a £85.8 million deficit for its Dedicated Schools Grant deficit by March 2024.

And it spent £11.2 million on HS2 - though it's not clear whether that was revenue or capital investment. Cheshire East is seeking compensation:

Now the Local Government Finance Settlement has been published, I'm going to write a mega-thread on the status of individual local authorities.

1. Havering Council is "on the brink" of a Section 114. It now receives less than £2 million, down from £70 million in 2010-11.
