Original Note:
Not only Labour-run councils are in financial trouble. At least 26 councils in the most deprived areas of the UK are at risk of bankruptcy, some of them Tory-run. Examples are Thurrock (Tory-run) and Woking (Tory until the June 2023 elections). https://www.theguardian.com/society/2023/aug/28/at-least-26-english-councils-at-risk-of-bankruptcy-in-next-two-years?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-essex-65916073 https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12256969/How-tiny-council-ran-1-2billion-debt-trying-Singapore-Surrey.html
