No one is sugesting that Mr Leech should stand down as Cllr. Perhaps if people took the time to read thing properly before hastily posting comments they would see that it merely poses a question for debate. In the Suth Manchester Reporter today Mr Leech claimed that he would use the £15,000 he gets as Cllr to fund his office and staff. Why? He will get, in addition to his personal wage of around £60,000+, an additional sum in excess of £58,000 for expenses just as this. If there is no shame in taking extra public money for continuing as Cllr then why suggest that he is going to put the money towards resources that are already financially provided for. A question, perhaps more for the Electoral Commission than John Leech Watch.
