Clive Lewis For Norwich South
Over the last decade the Government has slashed funding for local authorities by nearly 50%, and now the Covid-19 pandemic is seeing councils under huge pressure.
Local government won’t survive another round of austerity, and without sustainable funding more people who need help simply won’t get it. That’s why I’ve joined a cross-party group of MPs to write to the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities, and Local Government, to ask that local government gets the funding needed to deal with cost of the pandemic and deliver the services that people like my constituents in Norwich South need.
