Cllr Adam Lowe Oakham Mayor and Rutland County Council Barmstedt, north Germany only bought me a hot dog,
At tonight's Oakham Town Council meeting recorded Oakham Mayor Councillor Lowe
reminded of his and his wives recent visit to Germany and he just happened to pop into the town
Oakham is twinned with. He went on to tell us how once the towns people at the council just happened to find out who he was (the Mayor of Oakham and a Rutland County Councillor)
he was treated like royalty, stating they paid for everything.
At this point I gently reminded Cllr Adam Lowe of the legal requirement for all Cllrs to declare
any gifts like this. He then went on to lie by saying he did not say they paid for everything and they
only paid for a hot dog. Does Cllr Lowe ever tell the truth?
At the same meeting as Cllr Lowe persuaded the council to spend up to £1000 towards on gifts
visits and petrol when the same 7 people he met will visit Oakham sometime in April this year.
I can only assume that there is nothing interesting for the Germans to see in Oakham as they will be visiting a house out of town and another out of county.
I strongly object to taxpayers money being wasted on such outdated jolly's
It would appear Rutland County Council think the same, Cllr Lowe told us at first they were willing
to contribute towards the cost of the visit and he appeared annoyed that they are not willing to spend the money he wanted, good for them.
In the past Oakham residents have funded visits and I think that is how it should have remained.
Cllr Lowe did tell us the Oakham Twinning Group whoever they are will be paying £600 for the dinner...
