'There will need to be both large spending cuts and council tax increases in order to balance the budget' | jonmolyneuxSGP ✍️
I’D like to wish a very Happy New Year to all Glasgow Times readers. I hope that even in these trying times you have things to look forward to in the year ahead.. In just over a month from now, councillors are required by law to set a balanced budget. That is never an easy task, but this year it is extraordinarily hard.
This year, there is virtually no room for manoeuvre. There will need to be both large spending cuts and council tax increases in order to balance the budget.I know that won’t be easy. All levels of public spending are under pressure due to soaring inflation and the catastrophic consequences of Liz Truss’ calamitous premiership.
