ALL I can say about the Graham Pound scandal (LET, May 29), is: Shame on all of you. A great number of Conservative voters supported the party through thick and thin and helped bring attention to the shocking mismanagement of services under Labour, but, I'm afraid, never again.

I am honestly ashamed that people know me to be a Conservative. How can I moan about Bill Taylor or Paul Browne when I leave myself open to the accusation that my party allows a councillor to rake in allowances while showing no interest in the borough?

I will certainly not be voting Conservative next May.
