Cllr David Cavill A FORMER mayor of Trowbridge who was kicked out of the Conservative Party has joined the Liberal Democrats. Cllr David Cavill was welcomed into the South West Wiltshire Lib Dem Group by the town council’s leader Cllr Stewart Palmen, who said: “We would like to welcome a new councillor to the Lib Dem group. “David Cavill is a former mayor of Trowbridge and has been working to make Trowbridge better as a councillor for sometime. “He was instrumental in setting up and running the very successful Celebrating Trowbridge event in 2019.” Alongside two other town councillors, Peter Fuller and Diana King, Mr Cavill resigned from the local Tory Group last July to sit as Independent councillors after they objected to the Conservative Group’s leader Cllr Antonio Piazza s misleading public statements and unwarranted criticism of council staff and other councillors.
