The Council has gone back on its promise to rebuild Redbrige Primary school. They don't have the money.
There were 2 big capital overspends in Redbridge recently:
1) The building of Brownhill House in Lower Brownhill Road went over budget by hundreds of thousands of pounds. This started under Labour and was completed under the Lib Dems.
2) Also expenditure on Mansel Park was a couple of hundred thousand over what was planned.
Had the Lib Dems controlled expenditure they would have had money for Redbridge Primary school. At the time I heard the argument that we should be happy with the wonderful new facilities and should not moan about the extra cost incurred. However there is a limited pot of money and if it is wasted, other worthy projects like rebuilding Redbridge Primary suffer the consequences.
