So why does he now need to attend the meeting on the 27th February at more cost to the taxpayer? Does CCC think that Cllrs are too thick to draw their own conclusions from the evidence CCC have produced? <br /><br />I have always admired Sian Caiach. One only has to listen to the tone of voice and look at the body language of the bench and specific Cllrs in the public meetings when Sian speaks, to realise that she is despised by them for speaking out in support of the public as opposed to Mark James and his cronies.

But he is the Leader of the Council. If he cannot stand up and justify his actions before his peers on his own behalf, it raises the obvious questions:<br />1. Does his case have justification?<br />2 Should he be Leader?<br /><br />Any QC will be able to make a persuasive case - that's why they are QCs. But on the floor of the Council Chamber, in the cradle of local democracy, there should be "equality of arms" - a fair playing field.<br /><br />A barrister's presence can only be justified if the Council is prepared to fork out for any other Councillor who wishes to be similarly represented.<br /><br />Council meetings are being regularly hijacked and stage managed by the ruling elite in CCC.
