9 NOTICE OF MOTION

MOTION ONE

 

“This Council recognises the suffering forced upon local residents as a result of the Coalition Governments cuts programme and the impact upon the NHS and local government, and asserts that there is an alternative to its ideologically driven attack upon the lowest paid and public services – namely the levy of a Financial Transaction Tax of 0.05% on speculative banking transactions. 

 

This Council therefore calls upon the Government to enact a Financial Transaction Tax and use the revenues from this measure to tackle poverty and reverse on-going reductions in Central Government Funding to the NHS and local councils.”

 

Councillor Ian Campbell               Councillor Alan Rhodes

MOTION TWO

 

“This Council calls upon the Government to keep the East Coast Mainline in public hands and not to re-privatise. 

 

Such a step would not require a spending commitment from a future chancellor.  It would mean that the contributions made by fare-paying passengers and other tax payers could be used for cutting fares or for public reinvestment in rail, and not diverted into the pockets of private company shareholders.

 

We recognise that the rail network is vitally important to the UK’s economic and social livelihood as well as a greener and more sustainable future and is key to economic regeneration and job creation across the country.

 

However, the present structure of the UK rail network does not provide value for money or fairness for passengers and taxpayers.  The UK has the highest fares in Europe, with no incentive for private investment, and public subsidy that has doubled since privatisation.”

 

Councillor Ian Campbell               Councillor Alan Rhodes
