Nothing like using your position to stop a housing support project for care kids because they’re too near your house.

In his defence Luther Lane is an odd place to house the kids. It’s a middle class area off the beaten track, with a mainly middle aged / elderly demographic and not really close to any amenities.

The point is the council leader didn’t declare he lived on Luther Lane and remove himself from the meeting. Actually emailing the director of social services saying the housing project shouldn’t be located there was akin to a murderer waving around a bloodied knife shouting, “I got the ****er!”

We can’t have prison leavers in Luther Lane, let’s ram them up the Gurnos.
