Loveday Jenkin
Code of Conduct
The complainants alleged that Councillor L Jenkin liked a social‑media post containing an insulting comment about a resident who was moving away, claiming this breached the Code of Conduct. The decision found no breach, noting that liking a post does not necessarily indicate support and the complainants were not named, and therefore rejected the complaint.
Outcome: no breach
