A Tasmanian councillor has been suspended for three months for "bullying" two local business people on social media — but has since doubled down on her own Facebook page and says she is being "persecuted".
The Local Government Code of Conduct panel found Glenorchy Alderman Kelly Sims "attacked" Leah Clark and Beau Thompson in both a local ratepayers group on Facebook and on their business's Facebook page.
