CONGRATULATIONS to the Mayor of Tidworth, Chris Franklin, for breaking ranks over the issue of Wiltshire Council leaders' pay.
He has left the Tory party in protest against the huge rises in allowances that Jane Scott and her cabinet members have voted through for themselves at the same time as they are axing jobs and squeezing pay for their remaining staff.
How are they managing to get away with it? By upping the salaries of a few favoured execs at the same time to keep them onside. It's the classic 'divide and rule' technique.
