Hawksmead Ltd, Paul Bywater, Oakham Town Council Planning APP/2011/NH (FUL) Racism

Hawksmead Ltd, Paul Bywater, Oakham Town Council Planning APP/2011/NH (FUL) Racism


At last night Oakham Town Council meeting of Oakham Town Council's Planning and Park Committee

We were all treated to what can only be describe as a case of the worse case of racism I have ever seen at Oakham Town Council. Most of those Rutland residents who hold racist views don't express them so publicly.

I was shocked when the Chairman of this committee expressed his racism so vocally and consider this an abuse of his position as chairman.

Cllr John Nowell blamed immigration for Oakham's need for new housing he concluded his racial rant with while immigration was allowed to continue new houses will be built and the new houses will sell because they will buy them.
