Council tax- it's time to put local people first

This week, Halton Conservatives launched our council tax campaign. We believe there is a better approach than that adopted by the Labour Council, which has led to a 100% increase since 1998.

We think a better approach would be to:

• Cut the number of senior managers
• Root out waste in every council department
• Slash payments to councillors
• Reduce council tax for the first time in years

We will continue to speak up for the people of Halton on this and other issues. We believe it's time to put local people first.
