Nub News' piece about Hadleigh town council mayor Gordon McLeod was, of course, an April Fools gag.

Thank you to all of you that got in touch to say how much you enjoyed it, and sharing comments about the mayor and the town, which unfortunately we cannot share publicly for legal reasons.

We are aware that many people in the town, although embarrassed about how certain councillors, and council staff have behaved, do hold the office of mayor in esteem and not everyone believes Cllr 'Jilted John' McLeod is a complete joke.
