SIR – It is absolutely incredulous that the former Lord Mayor of Bradford was twice over the drink drive limit, and had recently given stern warnings to those holding mobile phones when driving.

He will no doubt be comforted by Council leader Ian Greenwood paying tribute to him, for resigning from the Executive on his own volition!

However, he still remains on the Council, because this does not show a betrayal of trust.

This is outrageous hypocrisy.
