There's a letter from Graham Jones, and also a withering retort from his sister, who passionately attacks the smears, aimed at her and Graham's late grandmother, and sets the record straight on that particular matter.

All in all, as an exercise in public relations, Cllr. Marlene Haworth's letter can't be hailed as a great success.

Judging by the backlash, not only in this week's paper, but also what people are saying in the street, just the opposite was achieved.
