7 Sins of Rutland County Council Vote for Cuts what a farce!

7 Sins of Rutland County Council Vote for Cuts what a farce!

Rutland County Council budget consultation 2011.
How much did it cost Rutland County Council to produce? these voting cards,
yes they call them voting cards!
Each one has been carefully hand made by a Rutland County Council employee so a few hundred people could vote.
Which two cuts from seven would they like to see imposed on the rest of Rutland.
As one a person who commented pointed out earlier this is not a vote. I and plenty of other people have described it as a farce and it is.
When the cuts are imposed the Tory Controlled Council will say we had a public mandate the people agreed to the cuts, I say my arse, the people did not agree to the cuts!

The council web site only allows one vote why?

Rutland County Council has £19 million invested in accounts abroad, so why are they forcing people to suffer these cuts?
