Cllr Duffy |
In what one informant described as an ugly meeting reminiscent of a kangaroo court, Duffy was accused of bullying and bringing the Labour Group into disrepute.
Cllr Butt's allies ensured that a compromise proposal, for a shorter period, was defeated. Duffy's recent criticism of Brent's CEO, Carolyn Downs, appeared to have played a part in the move as well as his revelations concerning Brent's management of its waste services. LINK
The action appears vindictive as Duffy, who was not selected by Labour for the May 2018 elections, has just only six months left as a councillor.
I do hope that this does not prevent Cllr Duffy continuing to speak 'Truth to Power' despite "Power' trying to silence him.
