Today we have interviewed the leader of the Conservative Group to find out what he thinks will happen at the special meeting of the council being held at The City Chambers tomorrow. We found out that the position of the Tory Group is really unchanged, they just want more information before taking a decision. But they have at least confirmed that they are pro-trams:-
