Tony Dyer (Leader of Bristol City Council) gave an interesting interview on a local podcast this week.

Some quotes:

> We've also had to made £42 million pounds of cuts, yes I know I'm supposed to say savings but saying savings when you're the person that is on the receiving end of it doesn't make you feel any better

*If I was to ask you to mark yourself out of 10, what would you give yourself and why?*

> 5

*Really? That's quite low*

> We have worked hard to deliver a balanced budget, but there is so much more we wanted to do in this first year.

You can hear more about about Tony's views on the Liveable Neighborhood Schemes, the threat from Reform, the WECA Mayor and Bristol City FC by listening to the full podcast.

I did try and listen to the [previous interview that Tony gave 5 years ago](https://thebristolcable.org/2020/11/listen-hartcliffe-born-green-party-activist-tony-dyer-on-south-bristol-class-politics-and-never-joining-labour/?ref=bristol-uncovered.uk), but the Bristol Cable don't seem to make their full archive available.
