BOB Bibby and Jim Taylor are hard-working councillors who have represented their wards in a very positive and professional manner. They have worked tirelessly to overcome the many hardships faced by the people who elected them to office. Now they they have been suspended, who is going to pick up those pieces?

I think that the Labour-controlled council has gone insane, especially its leadership, which is no surprise to me as leader John Byrne has personally attacked the people of Bury in the past. Let's not forget the embarrassment of his "fishwife" remark directed at one woman during a pubic meeting.

How can a person whose partisan motives are purely political, wield so much power? Is this action against two Conservative councillors just another desperate Labour attempt to rescue them from election defeat in two years?
