Following your recent report I enclose my response, to which I trust you will give equal prominence.
Prior to the Halesowen Area Committee meeting on November 14 I received a request to allow a letter from Lynda Waltho MP (Stourbridge) to be read out at the meeting.
I agreed to this in a spirit of co-operation, anticipating some reasoned and constructive comments on the meeting agenda.
Sad to say, this was not the case and we were subjected to a long winded blatantly political attack on the Conservative controlled Dudley Council.
Perhaps, assuming Mrs Waltho drafted the letter personally, she might be better occupied challenging some of the more outrageous actions of her Government.
Councillor Harold Jackson, Chairman, Halesowen Area Committee
