Mark Pritchard has hit out at Telford & Wrekin Labour Councillors. At last weeks Council meeting Labour put forward a motion to ask the two Conservative MPs to intervene with the government to ease the cut-backs.
However, Mark Pritchard robustly rejected their comments pointing out that it was the irresponsible Labour Government's mismangaement of the economy that has caused the need for the cut backs.
He said - “If Labour hadn’t wrecked the public finances these savings would never have to be made. It is Labour who nearly bankrupted the country and are the reason why local government budgets are so tight. The Labour group should apologise to local people rather than draft motions.”
