Look ! I'm a complete numpty as far as politics/council matters are concerned, but are you seriously telling me that one of our voted in councillors cannot speak the Queen's English !!! ('scuse my mirth).
Surely, this should be one of the first criteriors for anyone holding this honourable position !! Do you think 'he says' he can't speak English when it is most convenient to him ?

I don't understand why Councillors should have any political bias in any direction (sure someone is going to put me straight) .. what is the difference between a 'Labour' councillor and a 'Tory' councillor making a decision whether it be a wayward Taxi drivers or a cracked paving stone .. all an enigma to yours truly.

All councillors should be Independent in by opinion and not use any political persuasions to make decisions ... whatever that may entail.

Is it all to do with the money backing to become a councillor in the first place. Need an understanding here.
