Hammersmith & Fulham Conservatives also pledged to cut Council Tax - and
they did.

And we'll see how that affects their funding from central Government
next time round...

It does help the council tax situation when central government gives a
more generous grant to the council than usual.

Personally, I find it irritating that I get sent a glossy
self-promotional magazine from the Conservative council every month when
the Conservative assembly members are the first to jump on the Mayor for
doing exactly the same thing...
