I don’t know what came over me when embarking on a transcription of
all the
Councillor’s goodbye speeches at the last Council meeting but having heard the
Mayor saying on the last transcribing session that there was only one speech left
and with an hour or two unexpectedly free this morning I set to at the keyboard.
Then when that was done I came to another Mayoral announcement. There was yet
another speech and having ploughed through that too she said there were two more! They will have to wait for the
weekend. I now understand why I decided to leave the 2022 speeches unreported.
Probably the most interesting speeches are the impromptu unscripted ones. They
can be very revealing. If I can
recommend only one it will be Melvin Seynour’s.
With the implied suggestion of depression and his apparent confidence in
re-election, I do hope he is OK.
He lost to Reform UK.
