As three of our councillors seem to be very happy to roll over and agree to anything that Highland Council asks of them rather than at least try and fight the corner of the community that voted them in then the answer is very simple when it comes to their replacement. <Old ropenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10213884.post-1572259786494109182018-04-28T13:56:08.994+00:002018-04-28T13:56:08.994+00:00I've heard many people saying get rid of the c...I've heard many people saying get rid of the current councillors but who would replace them?
