Conservatives say ‘NO’ to Somerset County Council’s hostile bid to scrap Taunton Deane Borough Council and the other district councils in Somerset

John Meikle, Taunton Deane’s longest serving Councillor mounts a roadside protest against Somerset County Council’s bid to scrap Taunton Deane Borough council and all the other district councils. Conservative councillors were joined by the Liberal Democrats from Taunton Deane Borough Council to oppose the Liberal Democrat run County Council’s hostile bid to impose a super authority on local residents across Somerset.
