Councillor should resign

JAMES CALNAN

In reading the change of heart by Ward 4 Coun. James Calnan, I nearly lost my breakfast.

He may have changed his mind but he did it without the support of his constituents, one of whom is me, let alone turning his back on his fellow councillors. Very convenient that Mayor Mike Hancock was out of town, too.

There is an old saying that when the going gets tough, the tough get going. Perhaps there is a clue for the councillor.

If he feels so strongly about changing his mind along with his horses in mid-stream, maybe he should follow his announcement with resigning his seat, and join those of like mind out on Fen Ridge Court.
