Episode Details

Edinburgh City Council approves a £1.5 billion budget with a 4% council tax increase, down from the recommended 5%. The SNP group warns about the long-term financial health of the deal, as using one-off funds could lead to bigger savings, tax hikes, or other income grabs in future years. Meanwhile, the SNP proposes an extra £3 million for homelessness support, but their budget is rejected in favor of a Labour, Conservative, and Liberal Democrat version. The SNP claims this version sneaks in £700,000 of unidentified Tory service cuts and redirects homeless aid money to tax breaks for the wealthy.
