Documents released by Sky News today provide further evidence that Brexit will be a disaster for local councils which are already struggling to provide services in the face of Tory funding cuts.

Councils up and down the country, including Bristol and in the West of England, are having to work out the implications for social care, border controls, the availability of food and medicines and Bristol City Council is even planning how to deal with civil unrest.

Councils are already facing serious funding pressures, and with even a soft Brexit likely to cost £500 a person, the economic impact of the Tory Brexit will lead to further cuts in service provisions.

This is why the Liberal Democrats are leading the fight to give the people the final say and an opportunity to Exit from Brexit.
