Her condition affects speech and movement regularly
A county councillor has apologised for “unclear comments” and moved to clarify them after being accused of ageism.
“What we’ve done is we’ve filled the place up with people who are economically inactive, retirees and people who want to live on the coast, who contribute nothing but then who need services. We’ve got a huge demand for social care on the coast,” he was reported as saying. “We have paid into the health service all our working lives and have every right to use those services,” he said.
Anita Marbrow said: “What about the elderly lucky enough to have more disposable income, and like you say do their shopping in town etc? He’s made everyone over 60 sound a burden!” Councillor Davie said: “I’m very sorry if my comments were unclear and I’m pleased to now be able to clarify them.
