Tuesday 2nd November
Most of the day was taken up with Full Council. There were a number of interesting discussions around the economy, the finances of the council and the normal knock around of question time.
I think the most interesting debate was around the Scrutiny Review of Project Champion. Often Scrutiny Reviews are nodded through with a few speakers but this had a lot of interest. Project Champion was in the national news, as a number of CCTV cameras were put up to try and reduce terrorism without any real consultation and they were in largely ethnic areas. This caused outcry in the local communities. The police have since apologised for the problems this caused for community relations.
