Adur Tories have really let the cat out of the bag this time. Their hapless leader, Neil Parkin, made it clear (Letters, November 3) that "might is right".
Because the Tories have more councillors than Labour, Councillor Parkin says he will take no notice of anything Labour councillors say, no matter how sensible it is.
Not very democratic at all, Coun Parkin. But very convenient when Labour councillors are tenaciously repeating the uncomfortable truth about Southwick Square and under-the-counter Tory plans to jack-up the rents prior to a possible smash-and-grab sell-off.
"Better to keep quiet and let people think you are useless than open your mouth and remove all doubt" is a saying Coun Parkin would do well to ponder.
