In a heartfelt speech at the RBWM council meeting to decide upon the local authority’s 2025/26 budget proposals Cllr Wisdom da Costa urged his fellow councillors to reject the proposed budget.

He warned that the £103 million central government hand-out for this term was only a short-term fix and did not address underlying continued funding and expenditure issues.
