Shadow Secretary of State for Communities and Local
Government, Andrew Gwynne MP,
responding to revelations that around one third of councils in England have
been forced to cut services delivering contraceptive care as a result of cuts
to public funding, said:
“Seven years of
government funding cuts to services are driving councils to the financial
brink.
"Continuing this
neglect risks creating a crisis not only in local government but also in our
health service.
"At a time when the
country needs fresh ideas and leadership, it is instead suffering from the
weakest and most divided government in memory.”
