"We are writing to let you know that Keith Ireland is leaving the council.

 

Over the last few months it has become clear that we do not share the same approach to a number of important issues that are facing the council and in these circumstances we are agreed that a parting of the ways is the best way forward for both of us. 

 

Whilst unfortunately things have not worked out we are united in wishing each other the very best for the future."
