Councillor Attendance Records

It's a rainy day in Windsor and what better way for the Thames Tattler to spend a day off of work...but to look up the attendance records of our councillors we have elected to run our lovely borough.  I found all the figures published on the RBWM website.  I was a little surprised at what I found, but let's first start with the councillors who have a perfect score and attended 100% of meetings.  

Out of the 57 councillors that are elected to represent the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead - there were unfortunately only THREE with perfect attendance:

Elizabeth Barton
Clive Baskerville
Eric Wiles

Good job Councillors!

And now the bad news - I've gone through the records and listed the councillors with the worst attendance.  Would any of us stay employed in our jobs if our attendance records were this poor?   Dear councillors - if you don't want to or can't do the job you were elected to do - please step aside and allow us to elect someone else to take your place. 

Hazel Wilson - only attended 24% of meetings.
Humaira Khan  - only attended 31% of meetings.
Barry Thompson - only attended 32% of meetings.
Simon Meadowcraft - only attended 48% of meetings.
Paul Etherington - only attended 50% of  meetings.
Alison Knight - only attended 50% of meetings.
Norma Herdson - only attended 55% of meetings.
