| Comment | Important to understand that this was entirely part of the plan as well. A feature, not a bug, as you might say.
Massively defund local authorities (disproportionately affecting dense urban areas, ie. cities, which overwhelmingly do not vote Tory), and force *them* to pass on either unpopular tax rises or unpopular cuts to services.
The local authorities then end up bearing the full brunt of public outrage. |
