Norfolk county councillors have voted to stick with a controversial move to increase their allowances by 10.5pc - but how did your councillor vote?

Before Christmas, Norfolk county councillors voted, by 39 votes to 26 with two abstentions, to increase their basic allowance from £9,401 to £10,500 a year.

But Labour and the Liberal Democrats triggered today's extraordinary meeting with a motion that the Conservative-led council should reverse the decision.

However, the council voted, by 36 votes to 28, to reject the motion and stick with the increase.

Cliff Jordan, Conservative leader of the council, said councillors needed to be remunerated properly and that there was never a right time to increase it.

But Labour group leader Steve Morphew said it was the wrong decision and it would now be 'an albatross around the necks' of councillors.

And Lib Dem leader Dan Roper blasted the decision as 'self-serving' and a bad message to be sending when cuts are being consulted.
