@BhamCityCouncil announce budget from hell-£150m of #cuts✂️
Labour caused £760m liability from unequal pay. Worsened by the Oracle accounting software scandal and Tories cutting a third of the council’s funding. The £1.25b bailout comes with punishing austerity.

Sutton Coldfield Library is due for closure on 27th June.
Conservatives running the Town Council said repeatedly that they would get a deal to run SC Libraries and save them from closure.
They are failing to protect our services.
'Surely we are now at the point..."
@natalieben presses the Government on their decision to continue arming Israel even after they have resumed brutal attacks on Gaza.
I spoke in Parliament today backing the Climate and Nature Bill. Sadly, after the Government pressured their MPs, the majority chose not to have a vote on the Bill, meaning it won’t become law.
This delay is a serious setback in tackling the climate crisis. We need action now.
Incredibly disappointed that MPs didn’t get the chance to vote on the Climate and Nature Bill - a crucial piece of legislation to prevent climate breakdown & protect our natural world. But thanks to all those who backed it - I'll keep fighting for urgent climate action #CANBill
The UK pays double in energy costs compared to most of Europe.
Because Marginal Cost Pricing sets our energy prices at the production costs of the most expensive source: Gas.
The UK produces half its ⚡from cheap renewables but the prices keep going up.
Stop this!
Ive helped 2 veterans escaping BCC's supported exempt accommodation that was so inappropriate for them. Thanks to British Legion for their help.
Severe shortages of council housing means veterans are housed alongside convicts and drug users.
PTSD sufferers need safe stable homes.
This week I challenged the @KirkleesCouncil Labour Cabinet over their proposals to privatise 2 Dementia Care Homes.
The Government has allocated £600m to support Adult Social Care but still the council is pursuing this agenda. https://t.co/FK5BVeVMHG
