Original Note:
Over the decade to 2020, while overall public spending has increased by 5%, London local government will have seen core government funding reduced by 63% in real terms. After allowing for grants and council tax increases, spending power has still fallen by over a third. https://www.instituteforgovernment.org.uk/explainer/local-government-funding-england https://www.londoncouncils.gov.uk/our-key-themes/local-government-finance/london%E2%80%99s-local-services-investing-future/decade-austerity
