LISTEN: Paul Francis on the Kent County Council budget ahead of it's approval tonight - 20/12/18

We'll find out later just how much more we're going to have to pay in council tax in Kent.

The local authority is due to approve its budget for the next financial year with bills set to face one of the biggest hikes in recent years. 

If you live in an average band D home, payments are likely to increase by around £109 a year to more than £1600. 

That includes extra cash to fund the police and fire service too.
