Oh boy, everybody will be affected in some shape or form. If a Conservative council had proposed this level of cuts there would have been an outrage from the labour counsellors.

What are they doing with our council tax paid monthly?

I have picked up a leaflet in the library about this today. It says "Harrow Council needs to save £75 million in the next four years because of Government cuts imposed on us".

The proposals so far are for £25 million so there will be more to come.
