SIR - It is very rare for me to question the accuracy of the T&A's reporting of whatever it is reporting on, but the report of Mr Kris Hopkins' comments at a regional leader's board meeting (T&A, November 28) tested that assumption to the limit.

Mr Hopkins, who, lest we forget, is leader of Bradford Council, is reported to have warned fellow delegates that they need to focus on actions rather than words and that the partnership should not become another talking shop.

With the record of delivering from Bradford Council and the number of committees too numerous to even contemplate continue, I can only assume that Councillor Hopkins had to have his tongue firmly in cheek.
