Stop Derby Council spending £2.5 million on the Council House
Consider spending the cities money on useful resources and support instead of the Council House which does not need to be refurbished.
Why is this important?
This is really important to stand up and get our voice heard. Our council is spending hard earned taxes on irrelevant needs such as refurbishments that do not benefit the community. Derby has not got enough support for the likes of education, health care, leisure, support for the homeless, the younger generation, the elderly, the people who work for the council and the community that lives here. This is to stand up and make it known we want this money to be spent on the larger priorities. People have lost their jobs due to cuts yet it is perfectly acceptable to spend £2.5 million on a refurbishment? There are much larger issues that need to be addressed. We would like the Council to hear our voices and reconsider how they spend the money.
