Conservatives unhappy with Green Administrations handling of their Budget proposals for 2014.
The Green’s Budget proposals are due to be discussed at next Thursday’s (December 5) Policy & Resources Committee meeting.
Green Council Leader, Jason Kitcat, held a press briefing on Wednesday, two days before the detailed report is to be released, leaving opposition councillors completely in the dark over its contents.
The Conservatives expct the Budget proposals will include a 2% council tax rise which the Conservatives are strongly opposed to.
Group Leader Cllr Geoffrey Theobald said: “The Greens bragged that they would be the most open and honest Administration ever, yet here they are spinning their preferred line to the press without releasing any details of what they are actually going to be doing. Alistair Campbell would have been proud of these tactics! The only thing we know with any certainty is that the Greens will once again be trying to impose a 2% council tax rise on residents, despite being offered £1 million of Government money to deliver a freeze.”
