Wednesday evening (from 5pm) sees the annual budget meeting take place at the Isle of Wight council – all virtually of course – and Our Island have shared a bingo card that might liven things up (jump to bingo card).
As reported by News OnTheWight as well as the ruling Conservative group’s budget proposal – given a majority of Conservative councillors is the one most likely to be voted through – there are alternative budgets being presented by the Independent Labour councillor, Geoff Brodie, by the IW Liberal Democrats and the Island Independent Group.
