According to the papers, NALC (The National Association of Local Councils) has advised the town council that the referendum is illegal and misleading!
The email I have is confidential so I cannot disclose the details but I read the newspaper with interest and could not find much in the story to fault!
I am fighting this in many meetings and outside of the chamber alongside the residents and I look forward to being able to give you all the details in due course.
Councillor Owen seems un-moved by what NALC may or may not have said ;) and is ploughing on regardless. Full Council is on Monday 26th when the issues will be bought up.
Pat Kingsnorth, our town clerk put this item on the agenda and it appears that Councillor Owen attempted to have it taken off but there was not enough time so we do get to discuss our legal position.
It would have been a dark day in local politics if one councillor had have been able to silence possible legal problems to win his argument.
