After our exclusive story revealing he had called his chief fire officer a ‘bitch’ Northants police, fire and crime commissioner has announced he will leave the role.
If it were not for the investigations of Sarah and this publication, his transgressions would largely be unknown and engagement with the electorate being as low as it is, he would have likely returned to carry on with his cronyism. I totally agree he should go now, however if that were to happen we would be in the emergency situation of no Police Chief nor Fire Chief as both are under investigation and then no PFCC to direct any replacements. The fact we are even in such a situation speaks volumes about how poor Mold's leadership has been, getting propped up by the toothless Police Crime Panel for as long as he has been.
He should go now and not wait until the election. He has disgraced the office he holds. In any other job he would probably be at least suspended and then dismissed.
Job well done, NNJ, bringing to light the last despicable twist in this awful man's tale. No chance of him being sacked, of course.

He should be dismissed no allowed to carry on till May. The whole thing smacks of corruption .
Great work Sarah, without NN Journal this disgraceful Commissioner would have been in post for another 5 years.
May elections couldn’t come soon enough. He’s still got two months of high salary to enjoy. Hmmm.

Excellent - perhaps he could advise Frank Hester on how to behave after disgracing himself.
