Spring is in the air


The last three days have been glorious with some much needed sunshine after all the rain, wind and snow, which seems to have been with us for an eternity. I always find it uplifting once the spring flowers start to poke through at this time of year. A beautiful example is shown in the photo above of  a carpet of snowdrops in the Betjeman Millennium Park in Wantage.

We also know that spring is approaching once budget day comes round at Oxfordshire County Council. Today, that day has arrived and we have a full council meeting devoted to debating the budget proposals of each group and setting the council tax for the next financial year. This will be the 7th year I have presented an alternative budget as Leader of the Opposition and more information can be found in the press release here.
