The Vale of Glamorgan's council leader will retire following upcoming elections after more than three decades as a councillor.
Labour councillor Neil Moore represented the Cadoc ward in Barry for 33 years, and served as council leader twice, but is not standing again in the local elections on Thursday, May 5. Councillors across different parties thanked him for his public service on Monday, April 25, during the last full council meeting before the elections.
Cllr Moore thanked council staff and voters in the Cadoc ward while hitting out at criticism from “keyboard warriors and social media pundits”.
