A summary of the Peterborough Breakfast Show from BBC Radio Cambridgeshire broadcast from 06:00 to 09:00 on Monday 1st November 2010.<\/p>\n
Topics:
\nPeterborough City Council set out to defend their new and unpopular budget proposals.
\nThe local TUC Chair expresses his concern at budget cuts which affect staff and vulnerable service users.
\nThe local MP attacks funding for translation services and the provision of trade union facilities for staff.
\n
\nMuch of the programme is best forgotten. Dominated by mechanical failures, and at one point a heated exchange between staff over the name of a Sun newspaper Page 3 girl, neither of the two opposition parties on the Council were able to contact the studio to put their viewpoints. Due to this imbalance, no further reference will be made to arguments for and against the budget proposals.
\nCouncil is undertaking a renaming exercise in Fletton and Stanground wards as follows:
\nFletton to become Fletton & Woodston.
\nStanground Central to become Stanground and Fletton East.<\/p>\n
A ten-man Peterborough United conceded two penalties in a 3-0 drubbing at home by leaders Brighton. Manager Gary Johnson is giving some thought to the best way forward.<\/p>\n
Weather: Mostly cloudy with the chance of some drizzly rain at first, but mainly dry with some bright spells developing. 13C 55F.<\/p>\n

\nJohn Harrison Director of Strategic Resources Peterborough City Council.
\nJohn Graves Chair Peterborough Trades Union Council.
