The full council will be considering budget proposals at Wednesday's meeting, but will not be seeing alternative budgets from Labour or Independent councillors.
Chris Welsford says that the prime concern of councillors should be for vulnerable children who may not be protected as a result of the council's failings, as well as sparing a thought for the hard working social workers.
Independent councillor for Ventnor East, Chris Welsford responds to Cllr Pugh's earlier statement over his 'breach of constitution' motion (speech also shared below) that was stopped in its tracks at full council on Wednesday.
