Gosport's Conservative Mayor Derek Kimber (right) has ordered a
brand new £30,000 car – and passed the bill to the taxpayer.
The Chrysler limousine will be used for Councillor Kimber's “official duties”
as Mayor of Gosport.
The move has been widely criticised by residents. At the Forresters Arms
pub on Ann's Hill Road, locals were seething.
“I can't believe it,” said one. “Just how out of touch can he be? Doesn't he
realise how hard it is for most people right now? It's just mind-boggling.”
