(REPRODUCED FROM LABOUR ROSE)
In six years the Lib Dems have made Chesterfield Borough Council almost bankrupt. Thank goodness, they don’t run Derbyshire.
Launching the campaign to re-elect the four Chesterfield members of Derbyshire County Council, and to elect five new members in current Lib Dem seats, Toby Perkins said: ” The same people who have brought Chesterfield to the brink of bankruptcy now want to run Derbyshire.
The Lib Dems five sitting Councillors are all cabinet members on Chesterfield Borough Council, having brought it to the edge of bankruptcy they now want to ‘work the same magic’ in the only excellent County Council in the East Midlands (Labour run Derbsyhire, havenb’t they done enough already?”
Remember
THEY WASTED IT, YOU’RE PAYING FOR IT.
When the Lib Dems took over the running of Chesterfield Council, there was £12.8 MILLION in the bank, now it’s virtually gone!
Just look how you’re paying for their mistakes.
1000 % INCREASE IN CAR PARK PROFITS
TOWN CENTRE SHOPS GO BUST DUE TO RENT HIKES
COUNCIL TAX RATES GO UP, UP, UP
COUNCIL ASSETS HIVED OFF FOR PRIVATE PROFIT
STAFF AND SERVICES CUT TO MAKE UP FOR SHORTFALL
IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE LIKE THIS…
Whilst the incompetence of the Lib Dems in Chesterfield may make you despair, Labour run Derbyshire County Council continues to outperform almost every Council in the land.
Independent auditors have made Derbyshire the only 4 Star (EXCELLENT) County Council in the East Midlands, what a contrast!
In the elections, which take place on 4th June, Labour will be defending a proud record in Derbyshire and will face a strong challenge from the Tory group anxious to implement their service cutting agenda, the Lib Dems are nowhere with only 10 Councillors in the whole County.
