  Times change Keith. I have already referred to the problems encountered by Mrs T with extreme left wing councils at the time and she responded in a particular way. We now have different challenges to deal with and policies evolve accordingly. The Conservatives are returning to their small Government roots and as far as Councils are concerned now recognise that the only way they can have more independence from central government is by them raising more finance for themselves. A great deal of policy thought and discussion has gone into this starting back in the time of my Chairmanship.
