A councillor who stuck up for a colleague found out he was losing his Labour membership via an email bearing the wrong name – then had party subs taken from his bank the day after.
Long-standing councillor Mike Priestley received an email saying he couldn’t stay in the Labour party if he didn’t rejoin Conwy county council’s Labour group.
Both he and Cllr Ronnie Hughes quit the group after party colleague Cllr Penny Andow was ousted from a prestigious committee using a “bingo machine”.
