It is utterly disgraceful to see political opponents trying to score points over someone being taken into hospital.
My ward colleague was unable to attend the election count due to a genuine medical emergency. At a time when she should be focused on her health and recovery, certain individuals have chosen instead to attack and mock her absence for political gain.
Politics should never come before basic humanity and decency. We can disagree strongly on policy and campaigning, but there has to be a line. Personal health matters are not a political weapon.
She has worked tirelessly for residents in our ward and deserves support and compassion not cheap shots from the opposition.
I wish her a full and speedy recovery.
