A councillor has publicly apologised for not treating the Mayor and opposition members ‘with respect’ at a rowdy town hall meeting.
Councillor Robert Barnes, who represents the Conservative party in Chadderton South, addressed the chamber at Wednesday night’s full council meeting.
He issued a statement in which he apologised to the Mayor Elaine Garry, the council’s director of children’s services Gerard Jones and other councillors for his behaviour at meetings on June 27 and July 13.
