YORK council leader Chris Steward resigned last week after suffering a minor stroke. But you can't keep a good man down and Cllr Steward has just been confirmed as remaining on the executive as portfolio holder for finance and performance.
He has tweeted his thanks for all the good wishes, saying he had been through a 'hellishly tough period ...made more bearable by some brilliant support.'
At times like this there is no room for political machinations. So let's all wish Cllr Steward a speedy recovery and good luck for the future.
