Shock resignation of Conservative Councillor
Real Whitby is able exclusively to announce that Scarborough Council member Councillor Sandra TURNER (Conservative), following her recent resignation from the Whitby Harbour Board, has today (Sunday 10th March 2013) “resigned from S B C for personal reasons”.
Real Whitby wishes Sandra well for the future and is pleased to confirm that she most emphatically has never been a target of the Corruption Busters’ investigations.

It’s a pity they don’t all resign so we can get some new and honest councillors in there!

No indication that Ms. Turner is not honest Frank but I know where you are coming from. It really is a shame that local politics is in the grip of the party system. If our local politicians had the interests of local people in hand then half the mess we have would simply disappear. Party whips and caucuses should be banned. I used to think that the so called ‘Independents’ were just that, but no. Even they meet in caucus and then vote as a block. They are more answerable to each other than they are to the voters.
