Absolutely typical. We saw the same thing with the Friarsgate fiasco last year. Wherever Lichfield District Council’s financial matters are concerned, you can be sure that doors will start closing and lips will start tightening.
Public trust in our representatives has been shattered by a variety of conflicts of interest, back room deals and financial mismanagement.

The local taxpayer has contributed literally millions to the council’s failed vanity projects in recent years; surely, they have a right to know how their money is being spent and what it’s being spent on? Public trust in our representatives has been shattered by a variety of conflicts of interest, back room deals and financial mismanagement. This latest escapade will do nothing to allay residents’ legitimate concerns that the council does not have their best interests at heart.
