Congratulations to the PC brigade who have persecuted Nick Martin into resigning as Mayor.
He apologised and explained why he said what he did. What more could he have done?
He might have been wrong to use an old-fashioned word, but there was no need for this witch hunt which has damaged our reputation.
Can any of Nick’s enemies and persecutors say they never used such words in the school playground or place or employment?
No, they can’t.
No handicapped people have condemned him, only PC rabble rousers.
Mr L Evans, Westlea, Swindon
