Lord Sahota (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 1 April 2025

Debate

Birmingham City Council

Contribution

My Lords, I declare that I am a member of Unite the Union. I urge my fellow brothers and sisters to keep on talking. Under the previous Government, many councils of all colours went bankrupt, including Birmingham Council. The root cause of all this was the historical underfunding by the previous Government, as the noble Lord has pointed out, for the past 14 years. Is the historical underfunding of Birmingham Council still the problem there?
