WIGAN COUNCILLOR SHAME
The ruling Labour party on Wigan Council tabled a motion at the full council meeting on Wednesday 24th Sept 2014 calling on Cllr Bleakley to resign, which passed unanimously.
However (and was unreported in the media) wanting to go one better, independent Cllr Garth Fairhurst tabled a motion calling for all Wigan Councillors who accessed pornography to be called on to resign. He also called for resignations if they were found to have misused taxpayer’s money in claiming expenses.
Cllr Fairhurst said ‘ This way the Council would send out a clear message that we as a Council would not tolerate porn on Council equipment like their, laptops, Blackberry's or iPads’
Incredibly the ruling Labour party opposed this and voted it down, in effect giving Councillors the green light to access pornography and fiddle expenses without facing any kind of censure by the Council.
This raises the question that UKIP wanting answering; have Labour party Councillors also been accessing pornography and abusing their telephones and are they concerned that they will be caught doing so in the near future?
Wigan Labour party do have a history of this kind of thing (accessing child pornography, expense scandals and racism) and many will suspect that they haven’t identified other councillors for political reasons.
Even Cllr Fairhurst said; ‘I can only draw the conclusion that Labour are not bothered about their Cllrs that have porn on their Laptops. That is disgusting and now Labour have let Standards continue to be in the gutter by voting against the motion. It seems to me that Labour don't mind their Cllrs to misuse their Council Equipment for accessing porn otherwise they would have voted with my motion’
