I WAS pleased to read RF Cooper’s letter.

I have thought for some time that the BCP Conservative councillors and ex councillors have presumably drawn up a rota for writing letters to the Echo casting aspersions on the Alliance in order, insidiously, to persuade the electorate to revert to Conservative support. Their grapes must be extremely sour.

Hopefully the electorate remembers the statement made immediately after the election that “they would sit back and wait for the Alliance to fail”.

Obviously that strategy has not been successful, hence the present devious effort to undermine the work of their own council during a time of national crisis.
