A Conservative Council would cost you less says Alan Duncan

Speaking on a trip to Tyneside Shadow Minister Alan Duncan has pointed out that if a Conservative Council was elected in Newcastle average council tax rates would fall by £200

Alan Duncan said: "We have done our research and if you look at equivalent metropolitan councils under Conservative control their Band D council tax is £200 less and they get better services.

"This Labour Government has doubled people's council tax and destroyed their pensions and we feel we can do a better job than any Labour or Lib Dem council."
