‘Flabbergasting cheek’ is how local MP Sandra Osborne has described Cllr Nan McFarlane’s attack on those councillors who are questioning the administration’s plans for a Children’s Home in Forehill.
Sandra said
‘Her accusations of a campaign to‘incite residents’ might merit some consideration if she hadn’t been such a maverick and loose cannon herself over the years. Some of us will never forget her disgraceful and dishonest campaign against the fantastic new facility at St Meddans Court, Troon delivered by the then Labour administration. She knows a thing or two about ‘inciting residents’ I can tell you.
Emotive issues like the location of a children’s home can often lead to a flurry of press releases, letters to the papers, petitions etc. which she bitterly complains about. The fact is local councillors are elected to stand up for local people and to make sure their voices are heard. It’s all part of the democratic process’
