Reform UK stands by councillor sacked by police
Briefly

Reform UK council leader Dan Harrison has come to the defense of Andrew Hamilton-Gray, a newly elected councillor who had previously been sacked from the Leicestershire Police for calling in sick to travel to Spain among other breaches of conduct. Hamilton-Gray won his seat amidst a party rise to become the largest in the county council. His election raises questions about the transparency of his past actions, with former officials urging for suspension due to withheld information, although Harrison insists on his integrity.
Hamilton-Gray’s past involves serious misconduct as a police officer, involving dishonesty and integrity violations, raising concerns about transparency and fitness for public office.
Dan Harrison defended Hamilton-Gray, labeling him as an 'honourable, decent man' despite his previous misconduct, creating a rift in public trust about his election.
