Our council tax has gone up again and again - even during a cost of living crisis. And what do residents have to show for it? Libraries cut Youth services cut Lollipop patrols cut Millions spent on laptops and consultants The Conservative Mayor promised to fix the finances: he’s failed. Debt remains as high as when he took office and is set to rise, while the gap between income and spending has more than doubled under his watch. Parents, carers, full-time workers, pensioners, young people - no one can afford this. Meanwhile, fly-tipping is out of control, people don’t feel safe, and our town centre has been left to rot. Enough is enough. Add your name to the open letter and tell the Mayor Jason Perry: Croydon residents can’t afford this. It’s time to put People First. https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/tell-mayor-perry-croydon-cant-afford-this
