Lib Dem no-shows block Town Council meeting

 

The September meeting of Hedge End Town Council could not go ahead this evening, 20th September. So there is nothing to report this month. 

There have to be at least six councillors present for the meeting to go ahead.

Only five of the 18 Lib Dems elected in May this year turned up. Let's thank and acknowledge them for taking their democratic responsibilities seriously: Councillors Shepherd, Jupe, Hadaway, Mitchell and Nichols.

This would have been just the fourth meeting of the Council elected in May. It's a bit disappointing and embarrassing, not to say disrespectful of the stand-in clerk, that less than one third of councillors were present so early in their term of office.
