"People are already struggling enough with the cost of living, it's unfair of us to push yet more costs on to them. The Conservatives didn't have to rise Council Tax. The government offered a grant so that we didn't have to and the Conservatives chose not to take it, they chose instead to further burden the people of Woking" Ann-Marie commented.
