I WRITE in brief appreciation of the generous piece about Cllr Cliff Morris by Angela Kelly in The Bolton News on April 15.
I have known him, and politicked alongside him, for many years, and while he is not totally a saint, he is a damn sight nicer human being than most politicians.
It is rare in our society for anybody to say anything nice about a politician (and after the recent shenanigans, who can blame them?), but it is nice when someone takes the trouble to notice something good about a politician, and even nicer when they say so.
It is possible that he will be too embarrassed by the praise to say “thank you” himself.
If so, please understand that he probably still feels grateful for the praise.
