An anonymous council member points to examples:

To me it seems that there is a frustration at the lack of progress in the answering of legal questions. That in turn has created friction.

The truth is that they are all correct from their own points of view. Jonathan Riddell is complaining that the council are not doing enough, whilst the council are waiting on lawyers but still keeping things active.

My biggest question on this would be whether Jonathan Riddell could quit and claim constructive dismissal? If this were a company (and its kind of mixed in) it could be considered that technically he's done nothing wrong in a legal sense to earn a demotion. He would have had to have been given a couple of official warning first.
