Stop press: Labour councillor suspended for fighting cuts

Haringey Labour councillor Gideon Bull has been suspended from the Labour group for opposing cuts to adult care service.

Council worker John Dolan says: “It is outrageous that a Labour councillor is punished for speaking up for a vital service. This is what workers and service users expect them to do! Members of Haringey Labour Party, as well as the Socialist Party and TUSC, have been calling for the council to refuse to pass on the cuts this year.”
