Lovely evening at Best of Melton Awards. 

However, if you want confirmation that some people still live in the Dark Ages; COUNCILLOR Leigh Higgins just asked all the ladies to stand up so we could be seen as it’s been a long time since we’ve been able to ‘enjoy’ those kinds of sights!!! (Needless to say I didn’t stand up)

It’s a business and community event you absolute sexist, chauvinistic tool. Plus, I am not there to be ogled by anyone! He also told us how he nearly lost his multi million pound business and had to go on to JSA, and that some other millionaires had to have food parcels. My heart bleeds.

P.S Congratulations to all the winners and finalists.'


This does not surprise me, he was taught by the best old Melton Tory farts back in 2015, you only have to look at @meltonblue who can say anything they like and offend anyone they like to understand this. Its a shame really he has turned into one of them.
