Cllr Connolly has been in the national press opining that his wife is not a criminal. Well, she clearly is.
Standing by her is one thing and in its own way is quite noble of him.
On the other hand, Cllr Connolly's persistent refusal to acknowledge that his wife's actions were simply wrong raise significant question marks over his judgement, and must surely render him unfit to hold public office.
Do you think Cllr Emma Roberts has really "decided not to stand again due to family and work commitments" or do you think she's actually going on the Lee Barron Parliamentary Assistant payroll ???

So the Conservatives are standing firm in supporting Cllr Connolly who backed his wife's inflammatory remarks about the riots.
So they are quite relaxed about endorsing what she said?

Excellent article re:Labour councillors. Will be VERY interesting to hear their views regarding Mr Starmers NuNuLabour policies.
