I am told Uppingham Town Council has completed the lengthy and drawn out process taking over 3 months to resolve and employed a new Unqualified Clerk
A source tells me:
I'm confident that Mr Ron Simpson (aka Mr Uppingham) who got himself on the interview panel will have strongly influenced the Morris Dancer and the other muppets who comprised the interview panel.
Uppingham will now lose "Quality Council" status once the current Clerk retires in March 2015, as they need a qualified Clerk to maintain the award.
I understand Uppingham is the only parish in Rutland to hold that Award.
