Linden Kemkaran

Linden Kemkaran is not mentioned in any of the provided news articles. The articles primarily focus on two separate issues: a major water outage affecting 30,000 homes in Kent and Sussex, and criticism leveled against Reform UK regarding council tax increases in Kent. The water outage has led to school and library closures and impacted hospital operations. Separately, Reform UK, specifically Kent County Council (KCC), is facing accusations of hypocrisy for raising council tax by nearly 4% despite prior pledges to cut taxes. KCC is considered Reform UK's 'flagship' local authority, making this perceived betrayal particularly significant. The council tax increase is part of KCC's draft budget for 2026-27. The articles highlight challenges faced by local authorities and political parties in delivering on promises.
