Open Letter to Cllr Peter Smith

Dear Peter,

I am writing to you on the issue of your Chief Executive illegally sacking him. As you are aware he now has legal opinion and advice on the matter from leading solicitor Piers Coleman.

You have been in the local press saying that Cllr Steve Jones should just give up as he is no role model to be a Cllr. I would like to ask this who are you to judge? Surely that is for the people of Bryn.

How good is your judge of character? You had Cllr Joe Shaw, who was convicted of down loading child porn and having a gun and ammo and sent to jail. Next you had Emma McGurrin who was convicted of benefit fraud and sent to jail. There is a theme appearing here. Next we have a Number of Labour Cllr who were not sacked like Cllr Winkworth  ( the public will guess what she was called in the council chamber :-) ) and Cllr Bourne  - known in the chamber as Cllr porn as they both had been found guilty of breaking Council policy and using council equipment for downloading porn.

We also have in Bryn a Labour Cllr Rampling who son has been sent to jail for raping a 4 yr old. Here is that story. What great role models you have. I am pretty sure if you continue on course of this "illegal" by election the people of Bryn will be reading about this.

Hang on we have your another mate too - Dorothy Abbott who you employed in the Council and what was her role in the council? Advising staff on what benefits they were allowed. What did she go and do? O yes steal off tax payers by way of benefit fraud. Story here. Nearly £30,000 she stole off the people of Wigan. What a great circle of friends you have.

And what about you? How good are you? That's right you were leader in 1992 when all the child abuse scandals where going on in Wigan Council children's home and what did you do to protect them? NOTHING! Shame on you !

I would therefore take a good long hard at yourself in the Mirror and ask am i really qualified for calling people?
