YOUR lead story of a challenge to Cllr Williams leadership of TDBC is not unexpected - we regularly hear complaints among friends and acquaintances on issues that have dragged for years. We all know what they are.

It's tragic for all that so many in leadership cannot accept their most productive period of the first five years or so is replaced by not seeing the wood for the trees and defensiveness on past decisions.

Result: "Every political job ends in failure".

Cllr Williams, and maybe his lead team, should graciously accept that they have achieved much of value for the borough, and make an opportunity for fresh eyes.

Last, as a just-about Conservative supporter seeing our council apparently proposing to build a hotel with our money - you cannot be serious; Mrs Pow - bang heads!
