    Please see comment below made by the leader of the Liberal Democrats, Cllr John Macklin, in an email to another High Street resident yesterday which I fully endorse.

    “I have no intention of voting for DAT to go into ex-library. It was debated at a Lib Dem group meeting and vote was 100 per cent against Labour plans.”

    Lib Dems have consistently voted, in Cabinet, against a drugs facility being placed in this building and will continue to do so.
