"Continue to read your blog which is very informative. You seem to be the only councillor who actively and openly scrutinises what the council does!" (West Wight resident)
Well one of them ! I'm just more public about what I try to do, even if elements of the media try to ignore and belittle my work. I would add Deborah Gardiner, Brian Mosdell, and Vanessa Churchman from the existing Scrutiny Committee.
Of course they are one short when it comes to the 'call in' power, with the so-called 'opposition' Scrutiny Chair rarely keen on a call-in, the Liberals focussed purely on raising issues at Full Council that have been raised in Scrutiny or by me earlier, and the co-optees not doing much these days.
