Spending ban after 760m equal pay bill
LABOUR-RUN Birmingham City Council has gone bust after being clobbered with a £760million bill to settle an equal pay claim.
Europe's largest local authority confirmed that it had issued the declaration that it cannot balance its books.
It said all new spending, except protection of vulnerable people and statutory services, must stop immediately.
The council said it cannot pay the bill for an equality claim that is accruing at up to £14million a month.
It has paid out £1.1billion since a landmark claim dating to 2012.
