The attached email shows nuclear war nearly broke out at Rutland Council last Christmas.
Councillor Mr Richard J Gale (Independent) - OAKHAM NORTH WEST WARD in an attempt to assist a member of the public suggested the council had failed her.
This made Councillor Mr Terry C King (Conservative) - EXTON WARD (Deputy Leader of the Council) overreact (email comment made by Geoff Pook to Helen Briggs Chief Executive)
It was decided the sub-nuclear option may be the preferred option.
At the same time the Council was embroiled in a huge row about Hawksmead.
Geoff Pook attempted to calm matters and Mrs Briggs the "Lean and Mean Queen"
said she did not agree with Geoff and is very angry with Councillor Gales behaviour.
This explains why she walked home and said she was attending an important meeting instead of attending the meeting to answer the public question.
