The Conservatives appear to be in complete disarray.  At a meeting of the Joint Overview & Scrutiny Committee last Friday at County Hall, chaos was erupting in their ranks.

Not only were their councillors questioning what is in place if “Area Boards” do not work (the Tory ‘flagship’ in their Unitary bid), but one even announced that he will be standing against an official Conservative Candidate in the forthcoming elections!  They seem to be split right down the middle about the Unitary Council.
