Louis Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 "Here are the cuts we have agreed and will announce later this week. Every voluntary organisation that we support in the city is facing a cut and some an end to funding. I have shed tears – literally shed tears – over this. And it is not just me. These are cuts we are being forced to make. "If we refuse and set an illegal budget, the district auditor would be in here running the council in a matter of weeks. And we are not going to risk everything that's been achieved in Liverpool by doing that and allowing a re-run of the 1980s." http://www.independe...d-2209689.html# Tough times ahead for a lot of people.
