Cottesmore Protest Oakham Town Council

Over the weekend the BBC Broadcast, Oakham Town Council refused to allow the Cottesmore protesters to march on its land.



I was not aware they wanted to march on Council Land.



From The broadcasts I have listened to on the BBC iplayer no reason was given.



This in my view a unfair broadcast.



It would have been better for the Council if the had just given the reason publicly.



As we all know the Town Clerk told us the insurrers would not cover the event in Cutts Close. Then the many thousands of supporters mentioned in the news item would have a better understanding.



Next time could all Councillors be consulted before any press release is given or not given.

Cllr Martin Brookes
