Barnet Liberal Democrat Group Leader Cllr Jack Cohen is accusing Barnet Tory Cabinet Members of "cowardice" following their notable absence from Monday night's Finchley and Golders Green Residents Forum. Residents from around the Borough had turned up in strength to voice their anger at the increase in Cabinet Members' allowances. Cllr Cohen who also was at the meeting pointed out "everyman and his dog knew in advance that residents were going to turn up in force to ask questions and demand answers. But where were the Cabinet members? Here was an opportunity for them to face their electorate and to justify why they voted themselves huge increases. Instead they allowed Council Officers to take the flak."
