Shh, Mutton hadn't got his glasses on
Cllr Mutton was keen to point out that the basic increase in council tax was 1.9% and they had decided not to add on an additional 1% allowed by central government.
He said: “I need to stress that the council element is going up by 1.9% - it’s no good the opposition trying to make a meal out of a 4.9% when 3% of that is for adult social care - the whole country knows it is in crisis and the Conservative government has passed it off on to local government due to their austerity programme.”
