Wigan Labour party has announced that it has decided to hit Wiganers with a whopping 5.6% rise in council rent, that's double the rate of inflation.
The Labour fat cats will be hitting the least who can afford it when they agree the rise at the full council meeting on 15th January 2014.

What will the council do with the extra £4 1/2 million they will make? Spend it on a pay rise for it's own councillors of course.
At the same time as the rent increase was announced Cllr Paul Kenny husband of Labour MP Yvonne Fovargue also announced an increase, an eye watering 35% in his allowances!
