SIR – At last, perhaps Worcester can look forward to a brighter future. We are soon to have a new chief officer in place with the benefit of experience and fresh ideas backed by the unanimous support of the council.

All we need next is a new MP who is willing to support the city’s duly elected council at government level rather than one who takes every opportunity to undermine it. A luxury sadly missed for some years now.

In the meantime we should thank our officers for the excellent job they have done in steering us through very difficult times during this process.

Coun David K Clark
Worcester
