A senior Lib Dem councillor accused Stockport Tories of acting like they had woken up from a ‘ropey one night stand’ in an eyebrow-raising tirade at the town hall.
Coun Lisa Smart launched the attack on the eight-strong Conservative group during the authority’s annual budget meeting on Thursday night.
The Lib Dems had tabled a proposal for a ‘cost of living rebate’ for more than 100,000 homes, to offset soaring prices and an overall 4pc hike in council tax.
