Reason 1 not to vote Conservative: Council Tax increases!

Despite the Government putting some money towards a Council Tax Freeze, Conservative run Local Authorities in Cambridgeshire have gone ahead with Council Tax rises this financial year. A majority did last year!

The following rises went through:

Cambs Council Council (Conservative run) 2% rise
Police (Conservative run) 2% rise
Fire (Conservative run) 8.3% rise

South Cambs DC (Conservative run) 4.3% rise
Fenland DC (Conservative run) 1.7% rise
East Cambs 2%
Huntingdonshire DC (Conservative run) 3.7% rise

Just goes to show that Conservative Councils will tax when they want too.
