Watch Sky News, Rutland County Council Highest Council Tax in the Country, Catmose Sports Centre, Parks School, Statue of the late Queen and Interview with Lucy Stephenson Leader of Rutland County Council

Watch Sky News Wednesday evening from 7pm. Learn what residents think about Rutland County Council demanding the Highest Council Tax in the Country, The Catmose Sports Centre closure, Parks School closure and Statue of the late Queen and a  Interview with Lucy Stephenson Leader of Rutland County Council.


Rutland County Council continue to say central government is responsible for our high council tax bills.

Rutland County Council is not giving any contribution towards the cost of the statue of the late Queen.

Oakham Town Council is currently seeking legal advice, to find out if it can spend money from Oakham's precept on the Rutland project.

My personal opinion is the local government act clearly states the precept can only be spent on Oakham things and things that benefit the residents of Oakham and not those in other parts of the county. I don't object to the statue being purchased it should be funded by public subscription only. The proposed location in the flower bed is hideous one. I once made a personally donation toward Leicester's Joe Orton Statue.
