Emotions were high during the rowdy meeting
North Lincolnshire Council has “blood on its hands” over the number of incidents at Ashby Ville Nature Reserve, a furious councillor claimed during a heated meeting.
Councillor Davison asked how many Public Space Protection Orders have been issued at Ashby Ville and elsewhere. She had put forward a motion at an extraordinary council meeting held on Friday, August 11, calling for a permanent warden at the nature reserve to deter would-be swimmers. “I was told face to face that my motion was going to be supported,” she went on to say, accusing the council leader Councillor Rob Waltham of going back on his word and the Conservative group of not being willing to support the move because they had not thought of it first. “Let your conscience lead you and bring a warden in,” Councillor Davison urged.
“What should happen, if you were really interested in the issue, you’d be backing the council policy,” replied Councillor Waltham, before labelling Labour as resorting to the “most shameful kind of politics”. More crosstalking followed, prompting exasperated Mayor Councillor Brigg to say: “If you just shout across the chamber, I might as well go outside.”
