It seems ludicrous that a man is going to be put into the role of Mayor when he can not promote our town. What on earth are we thinking of????????

I should add for clarity, Councillor Mr Siddique can speak what would be decribed as 'pigeon english' or 'broken english'. Spinners complaint is one that gets aired often and for some reason they all go and contact Clr Jean Battle. I think it is because of the Neighbourhood Management Board in the area and her excellent work with asian woman.
