Local Councils across Britain are in severe financial crisis, finding it difficult to carry out their statutory duties and certainly unable to expand and improve services in a climate of growing need. Brighton and Hove Council is in a particularly difficult situation, having suffered deeper cuts in central government funding than most.
● What is to be done?
● How can Green Councillors in Brighton and Hove and elsewhere most effectively fight the cuts?
● What role can Green Party members and anti-cuts campaigners play?
● How best to link up with local campaigns against council cuts ?
● How much more difficult is this when our Green Council in Brighton and Hove are making cuts?
● What should be our response to anti cuts campaigns in Brighton and elsewhere?
● Should Green Party members support Council workers and Unions in dispute with Councils? Even Green led Councils?
Should Green Councillors anywhere EVER vote for cuts?
