Can Medway avoid bankruptcy?
A financial report has warned that it’s "very likely" Medway Council will face bankruptcy.
The Kent authority could face budget shortfalls of almost £40m within two years.

Councillor Vince Maple, the Labour leader of Medway Council, has been talking to our political reporter Michael Keohan about the “tough decisions” to come.
