"Unite branch secretary Mark Wood said
"the future looks very bleak indeed for our city."

Well, Mr Wood I can tell you that the future is always bleak when you have a Labour Council, and we have had many Labour Councils! Not one of them has cared about the future of Southampton which is why we are where we are. The City will not progress while the Labour Party is in power - based on past form, surely the citizens of Southampton City can see that!"
