In case you thought things have been suspiciously quiet at Ludlow Town Council recently, the Shropshire Star reports:

Six Shropshire town councillors including a mayor are being investigated after allegedly breaching confidential information.

It is understood that South Shropshire District Council’s standards committee met with the six Ludlow Town Council members on Monday afternoon and all six, including the mayor and deputy mayor could be suspended.

Now the councillors – mayor Jim Newbold, deputy mayor Derek Davies, Mickey Bradley, Amanda Pope, Marie Glaze and Tony Pound – have been told a decision will be in the hands of the Adjudication Panel for England.

At least Sarky appears to be in the clear.
