In the same contribution Cllr Longford declared she had never had so much disposable income as she currently has & suggested pensioners should start paying national insurance contributions on income drawn from their pensions. Can't imagine why this wasn't quoted by Nottingham Labour.

The Govt has historically appointed commissioners over Conservative & Labour controlled councils. Nothing political about appt in Nottm. Failure by Nottm Labour to reform governance of council companies following failures with Robin Hood Energy & unlawful spending of HRA monies.

#Nottingham Labour Group need to demonstrate "behind closed doors culture" of previous administration is over - full transparency over the sale of Thomas Bow required. The deal is done. There should be no reason for the Labour Group to keep details secret from the public.

With high temperatures expected to stay into the early part of next week please keep an eye on vulnerable neighbours, friends & family.

I think the important thing, is although commissioners aren’t coming in at this stage, the government has massively increased the powers of the improvement board. [Suggests] that on that basis we aren’t home and dry. [If] we were out of the woods the board would’ve been disbanded

Slight correction: Another casualty of Nottingham Labour’s disastrous financial handling Nottingham's finances from Robin Hood Energy to the Housing Revenue Account. It's a good job Christmas isn’t dependent on their management of council finances because that be next.

At a time when the Council is proposing to increase fees and charges for services, as well as scaling back some council services, I don't believe accepting an increase in the allowance would be seen as the right thing to do by the residents in my ward. nottinghampost.com/news/local-new…

The trader referenced by Tom Randall, Rajesh Dhingra, tells me the longer the council drags out a final decision, the more damage will be done. While another trader says compensation offered is "enough", Mr Dhingra says otherwise. Full story Notts TV 👇

We are tired of paying the second-highest council tax in the country while our services are cut, our streets and parks are dirty, and anti-social behaviour and criminal activity are on the rise. It is time for a change, and we are here to provide it. #VoteConservative

We're hugely delighted to be supporting @BBradley_Mans in next year's first ever #EastMidlands Mayoral Election! Ben is the only candidate who will successfully deliver jobs and investment for our city and the wider region!

Nottingham City Council and its Labour leadership have proven themselves utterly unfit to govern this great city. Their breathtaking waste and incompetence have let residents down for long enough. It’s time for the Secretary of State to appoint commissioners to restore order.

Nottingham Labour has finally managed to run Nottingham effectively into bankruptcy.🥀 Who is clearly responsible for this? Nottingham Labour. Who will admit responsibility for this in the Labour administration? No one. Nottingham deserves better than this.
