Stephen Akers-Belcher also called for the issue to go before the National Association of Councillors, which was agreed.

Coun Marjorie James said the move could lead to politically motivated decisions, adding there has to be someone independent in the process.

She said: "In principle I support the motion, what concerns me is that it could result in changes coming forward, it is open to political manoeuvre where you have a large group within an authority that they could protect their own member and exclude a member not in their group.

"I would hope the national guidance will include some kind of independent decision over whether a councillor should or should not be excluded."


The motion was unanimously passed by councillors.

Political manoeuvring seriously.....??

The pair of idiots should get The Hypocrites of the Decade Award!  Let's just hope that, in May, the electorate remember what they are really like...and vote them out!

Whispers on the wind have it that neither will be standing for re-election in May.
