"Weak Leader" attacks his own members

by “Lastman”

Durham County Council Labour leader Albert Nugent, criticised by the Audit Commission for his “weak leadership”, has hit out at members of his own party he claims are plotting against him.

The Audit Commission report says there have been “significant weaknesses in the political leadership provided by the Leader of the Council and the Cabinet” and “there is limited visible political leadership in key priority areas such as economic development.” Leading councillors were not consistently “holding officers to account.”
