Full Council Meeting 18th June

Should be an interesting day. For the first time the leader of the council will be facing potentially an equal number of opposition Councillors, the Labour Mayor will have a casting vote but who would have thought that we would have closed the gap to this degree for the first time in 34 years of Labour control the times they are a changing.

As deputy leader of the Conservative Group I will lead the opposition.

UPDATE:

Positive session, broad consensus on Post Office closures and an acceptance that transport and highways should be incorporated into future masterplanning exercises.

You may wonder why not previously, probably because they could get away with it.

Interesting thing, the Labour Group had a maximum effort and all 32 Labour members were present. They will have to keep on their toes over coming sessions.
