COUNCILLOR Bob Mainstone has announced his decision to step down from the Liberal Democrats on the Town and District Councils.

In a statement issued today he said: “I have decided to represent Imberhorne Ward as an Independent Councillor from April 2014.

“This applies to my role as an elected member of East Grinstead Town Council and Mid Sussex District Council.

“I have become increasingly frustrated working within the constraints of an opposition party. As an Independent I look forward to working in a more positive way to support my ward residents and the people of East Grinstead.”
