Annemarie Field: There’s nothing that sticks on the Tory Teflon I see Councillor Patrick Warner has survived another of what are becoming widely known around town as “Warnerisms” after he was taken to court twice for not paying his council tax. This councillor was asked to resign after problems with Eastbourne Buses and again when his failed business left local traders unpaid. I only assume he’s made of Teflon as none of his misdemeanours seem to stick, especially with the local Tory Association which refuses to accept enough is enough or withdraw the Tory whip and continues to allow him to stay on. Apart from standing up and pontificating to the likes of you and me, Councillor Warner chairs a scrutiny committee which oversees and evaluates decisions made by the council on behalf of Eastbourne people. But as far as I can see he couldn’t arrange a session in a brewery, let alone oversee and evaulate decisions entrusted to him by the people of our town. eastbourneherald.co.uk/news/columnists/annemarie-field-there-s-nothing-that-sticks-on-the-tory-teflon-1-5230573
