I have spent my entire public service career defending women and children against violence, even pepper-spraying a man in the throes of rage trying to kill his girlfriend one night like Jonathan Nunn did to his first wife. I myself was (gladly) arrested for self-defence against this monstrous wife-beater outside of my house, but I was immeasurably supported by my colleagues and neighbours and, indeed, the arresting officers, who were friends of mine.

Unfortunately, when I reported two sexual assaults by serving officers of Northants Police in 2018, I was prosecuted for stalking/harassment in retaliation. I am still working to fight these specious cases just as the subpostmasters are despite zero criminal history whatsoever.

I believe violence again women and children is irredeemable, and this Jonathan should indeed resign. How did he clear the vetting stages to reach election ballot in the first place? Why is WNC (which I also work with/for) not discussing his criminal pedigree?

There are too many questions that seem to patently manifest a dysfunctional family with no hope of reparable salvation in the near future, if the scandal with Nickleback Addalie of Northants Police is anything to go by...

The main theme running through the current "Domestic abuse" scandal at WNC seems to be, that, unelected Council officials making decisions to stopped Councillors expressing an opinion without malice.

This is unacceptable in a Democratic society. Councillors are elected to speak out and highlight and debate serious issues affecting society. If this freedom of speech is suppress than you really are on a sleepery slopes.

One one hand I'm willing to believe that a man who beats his wife can learn from the experience (and the criminal conviction) and turn his life around. On the other hand, the fact that subsequent partners have also had to report him to the police for domestic abuse casts doubt on Cllr Nunn's claim to be a reformed character. Sadly, criminal convictions no longer end political careers. Only voters can do that.

I take it that Cllr Nunn is still to take action against Private Eye about the claims they have published?

Congratulations yet again on bringing important issues to public attention.
