What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Conservative and Liberal Democrat-controlled local authorities in England are set to receive £478 million in cuts to Government grants. Simultaneously, Labour councils are slated to receive a £1.6 billion increase in funding. Labour states this shift is designed to rebalance funding across areas with higher levels of deprivation.
