The Swindon Town Tory Coup-Step

 The silly season is upon us, but for the Conservative group in charge of Swindon Borough Council that means all seasons. 

Evidence of which is clear with the previously Tory, then independent and now nearly Tory again Haydon Wick councillor Oliver Donachie. All in the space of roughly 3 months. What's even stranger is that the Conservative group has voted (closely) to readmit him to the party, despite calling the current leader "lethargic" and "asleep at the wheel", he hasn't apologised or answered questions from fellow members, claims one member of the group.

But they still voted to readmit him. Is something else afoot? Has anyone seen Donachie measuring for new curtains in the Tory leader's office?

Current Conservative Leader David Renard says an announcement will be made when the "group is satisfied the applicant will uphold the highest standards of group membership".

Whatever they might be.
