Silly burghers

You cannot help but feel that members of Gorseinon Town Council have probably diddled on their doorstep for the last time by creating a situation whereby two people can claim to have been elected mayor at 'competing' events (?)

We are not at all surprised to learn that fed-up locals are already pointing to the example of Ynys Mon where Welsh Government ministers suspended the county council for similarly inane goings-on. In the case of Gorseinon, the sad fact is that local democracy is too valuable to be left in the hands of people who clearly lost the plot along with the last remnants of local respect.
