Good evening and welcome to bbc news. A local council has taken the highly unusual step of imposing emergency spending controls after saying its facing severe financial challenges. The move by Northamptonshire County Council means a ban on all new spending apart from whats used to protect Vulnerable People. The councils conservative leader, heather smith, says the move is a result of rising demand for services, and cuts in government funding. Our Political Correspondent matt cole reports. Like so many others across britain, people in northamptonshire have watched their council manage multimillion pound budget cuts since 2010, and now theyve run out of cash, meaning a host of services from subsidised buses to libraries are threatened. Ill be absolutely devastated if it closes. Weve been here forjust over a year and i was delighted that this is kind of ten minutes down the road from us. We just feel, i suppose, let down, and why wasnt anything in place to prevent this situation happening
