Statement on new Labour Administration in Reading
Lib Dem Group Leader, Cllr Daisy Benson said:
“This is terrible news for the people of Reading who will now be facing higher Council Tax bills and unnecessary cuts to services.
“It is also very worrying news for all residents who depend on the Council for help and support.”
“Labour’s pre-election promises were completely unaffordable and will put at risk key services.”
“Lib Dems in administration cut waste and kept Reading’s Libraries, Children Centres and leisure services open.
“We will be campaigning to ensure they stay that way and to hold Labour to account.”
