Stony Stratford Meeting Overwhelmingly Rejects Bartlett Proposals

Councillor Paul Bartlett's motions were later rejected by the Town Council. Nobody present was prepared to second either of the two motions that were on the agenda for the meeting. As a result, the proposals were discarded and did not need to be debated on further by the Town Council.

One speaker asked for a show of hands to see how many people in the room supported Councillor Bartlett's proposals. There were around 150 people in attendance and only 2 people raised their hands - one of those was Councillor Bartlett himself.

Although Bartlett has seemingly refused to withdraw the ban motion itself, it looks dead in the water on this showing.

Congratulations to the residents of Stony Stratford.
