Defending the Indefensible

A number of readers have already contacted the leader of Edinburgh City Council - Councillor Jenny Dawe - over the recent decision in the Court of Session.

See previous posts dated 15 and 16 November 2011.

Without going into details or mentioning any names - people are asking some rather obvious but very reasonable questions:

1 How long can Edinburgh City Council go on defending the indefensible?

2 How much public money has been wasted on pursuing this case in the courts?

For easy reference here are the contact details for the council leader again - Councillor Jenny Dawe:

Position: Leader

Postal Address: The City of Edinburgh Council, City Chambers, High Street, Edinburgh, EH1 1YJ

Telephone: 0131 529 4987

E-mail: jenny.dawe@edinburgh.gov.uk
