Alan has won two elections since 2011 as an independent after Labour dumped him.
The second in 2015 he was uncontested.
Alan was a respected Independent Cllr by those in his ward who are generally not
Tory voters.
I think Alan should resign so an election can be called. His voters did not vote for
a Tory.
Alan was the chair of the Independent Group, which formed in May 2015.
Alan has also been a Town Councillor twice.
My sympathy is expressed to the voters of Alan's ward and his friends and family.
