Councillor David Barton – FUTURE OF SOUTHPORT AREA COMMITTEE

Councillor David Barton – FUTURE OF SOUTHPORT AREA COMMITTEE

Having pressed this matter at several points during the course of tonight’s meeting I should like to once again reiterate the serial importance of operating on a basis of mutual respect & sincerity. Be one a District Councillor or a member of the local Community at all times should such a noble conduct be upheld by everyone to ensure compassionate and correct democracy.

Having observed the proceedings for the entirety of this meeting I now feel that this cause, which I have firmly pledged myself to since upon first becoming your local District Councillor, is of especial relevance now more than ever before and I should like to formally request that other members of the Sefton Council take heed as all members of the general public should be treated with the same dignity and respect that such a Local Authority would warrant.

In spite of this however I should like to express my sincerest support to three such attendees including both the young gentleman Greg Myers and the two young mothers- the former being Diane Thomas and the latter Nat Glennon who unfortunately was unable to raise her question formally after a lack of proper conduct on part of other Sefton Councillors who also extended me the same level of disrespect.

I should therefore like to fairly, but firmly remind all the Councillors throughout the course of the meeting who also displayed such contempt towards all of us to revaluate how they conduct themselves for future reference before ostracizing not only myself, but key members of our local Community, in this particular instance the younger generation.
