A EDWARDS’ latest outburst accusing Warrington’s Labour council, along with most Labour councils of not freezing council tax only tells half the story.

Research has determined that Government cuts to local spending have hit Labour councils the most with 43 of the 50 worst hit councils being Labour run, some losing over £250 per head while 42 of the 50 least hit councils were Conservative run with the least having lost only £2.70 per head.

As a consequence of this, genuine people, including Tory voters, in Labour run areas are being made to suffer in a crude attempt to undermine Labour-run councils.

Unfair Tory cuts which are targeting Labour areas while millionaires get tax cuts.

Meanwhile Tory Central Office is e-mailing a national army of keyboard warriors arming them with dodgy statistics and sound bites.

Noam Chomsky said ‘If we choose, we can live in a world of comforting illusion.’ Unlike A Edwards I choose not to.
