Councillor Britcliffe Called off the AGM

JCB · 20-05-2010, 18:49

I see Britcliffe has been up to his tricks again.
With one day's notice he called off the AGM at which a new leader is elected.
His reason was the mayor's accident but Graham Jones had agreed to pair off with the mayor so that the mayor's absence would not give Labour an advantage.
Councillor Kathleen Pratt was unable to attend the AGM.That would have been one vote less for Britcliffe.
Now we know the true reason for the meeting's cancellation.
It's not the first time Britcliffe has cancelled meetings at short notice for his own ends.

No.

It said in the Observer Labour have nominated another councillor for the role of the next may, not Cllr. Prtitchard.

Strangely he's been rather quiet on here of late.

Perhaps it has something to do with us quoting him, talking about himself in the third person, and saying he'd phone him.

Having apparently multiple personalities, perhaps his title should be changed to 'Kings maker', plural.

The real one, or the one that 'knows him', or the one he phones, also called Cllr. Malcolm Pritchard?
