Cllr Gallant: Weak Lib Dems Duck Scrutiny as Labour Let Off the Hook

At this week’s full council meeting, the Lib Dems wasted a clear chance to hold Labour to account. Instead of serious scrutiny, they fixated on a minor typo in a council document, with just two Lib Dem councillors even bothering to speak. Conservative Group Leader Cllr Julian Gallant exposed this failure, calling out the Lib Dems for letting Labour off the hook. In May's local elections, residents face a clear choice: weak Lib Dem councillors who won’t challenge Labour, or Conservatives who will stand up and hold the administration to account for its failures in Ealing.
