Oakham Deputy Mayor Sally Anne Wadsworth was hoping to be appointed and has expressed her disappointment, she only received three votes.

I did tell her if your going to support Adam Lowe that would happen it is a great shame, although I wish Zoë  a good year.

Many Oakham Town Councillors don't understand the role of Mayor or Chairman they feel it gives them power to run the council it does not, the rules state they only control meetings and help prepare the agendas meetings with the clerk and sign documents on behalf of the council and represent members at invited civic events, I hope Zoë remembers decisions are made by the full council and not just her.
