Kidderminster Shuttle Result: 82% say No to ‘Tory Towers’

The final result is in, a massive 82% say No to Tory Controlled Wyre Forest District Council Plan to build new ‘Tory Towers’ Council Offices. Over 1000 voted in the Shuttle online Poll which finished on 21st December.

The coalition Tories, Liberals and Lib Dems are determined to press ahead despite a detailed paper from the Labour group which criticised the lack of Scrutiny of changed circumstances. Labour evidence predicts savings will be much less than claimed by the Tories and lead to expensive bridging loans and unsold empty council offices.

Now as well as losing over 5 million in Icelandic banks the Tories plan to spend £10.5 million on new offices at Finepoint.

A Labour Motion calling for the Project to be put on hold until detailed Scrutiny of changed circumstances was defeated at a recent Council meeting.
