Tonight, presented by Paul Brand, returns with a new episode, “How Broke Is Your Council?” airing on ITV1 on Thursday, May 23, 2024, at 8:30 pm. The episode investigates the town hall crisis and its impact on council tax bills and local services.
In this episode, Paul Brand investigates the financial challenges facing local authorities and the resulting cuts in services. He meets people affected by these cuts, including those facing the closure of their care homes, disabled individuals losing their transport services, and youth projects being discontinued, leaving children without support.
The episode explores the question of whether bigger council tax bills are justified when fewer services are being provided and why several authorities are facing bankruptcy.
