You don’t need a crystal ball to see what a Labour Government will do.
Just look over the border to Birmingham. The largest local authority in Europe, bankrupted under Labour.
The net result: council tax increased by 20% and local services decimated.
“Everyone in Birmingham is now paying a 20% higher council tax bill and that is a snapshot of what will happen if Keir Starmer is in power”
