Threat to BAC 'unwarranted' says MP

Wandsworth MPs Martin Linton and Sadiq Khan have asked the Government for assurance that Wandsworth Council is in no danger of being 'capped' if it maintains its current spending on local services.

Wandsworth Museum and Battersea Arts Centre are said to be under threat from cuts by the council. However, Conservative councillors say they have to make cuts or face a cap on expenditure.

Fight begins to save BAC

The Prime Minister gave his backing today to the campaign to stop the threatened closure of Battersea Arts Centre.

Wandsworth Council are planning to cut off their annual grant to Battersea Arts Centre next month and charge the commercial cost of rent and repairs, which would inevitably result in the closure of the building.
