Sir,
Following the letter sent in to your paper last week by Councillor Horn, I must comment that our former MP Alan Reid agreed to stand in the general election after many local people told the Liberal Democrats they hoped he would put his name forward. When he stood for the council, Alan obviously didn’t know that the Prime Minister intended to call a general election for June 8.
Alan is carrying out his council duties, as Councillor Horn well knows. He attended the whole of last week’s council meeting.
