Labour Party: People up and down the country will feel let down by this unfair settlement - Flint

Caroline Flint MP, Labour’s Shadow Communities and Local Government Secretary, responding to today’s Local Government Finance Settlement, said:

“Many people up and down the country will feel let down by this deeply unfair settlement. 

“All Eric Pickles’ warm words about transitional funds can't disguise the truth – the poorest neighbourhoods will be hardest hit while the better off will do best as a result of to the choices the Coalition Government are making.”
