I NOTICE that Coun Allsopp has added his voice, publicly, to that of Coun Thompson in opposing the funding system for the wardens' scheme.

I find their position very strange given that all the Labour group present at the full council meeting on February 20 voted in favour of this method of funding as part of the Rent Setting report.

Does this mean they do not read the council reports? Does this mean they do not understand the reports? Does it mean they adopt one position in council and another publicly? Or is there some other explanation? I am sure we would all like to know.
