The council simply did not make the reported second offer and the one that they did make was untennable
ok, so obviously there's more going on here than was first supposed. can anyone explain the exact figures and process that occurred in the run up to the decision to go into voluntary liquidation? how much money did the council cut and when? how did that affect the amount of profit the lemon tree was making? would it have made a difference?

obivously there's a lot of strong feelings about this and the majority of relatively negative comments are based on disappointment rather than anything else i'm sure.
