An anonymous letter, sent to the immediate past mayor of Bridlington, has been branded as vile, disgusting and pointless.
Cllr Liam Dealtry, who has served a total of five terms as mayor of the town, received the letter which was sent via Royal Mail, to his home on West Hill in the town.
The letter, which is far too disgusting to be published in full, is littered with derogatory comments, swearing, spelling mistakes and personal abuse directed at Cllr Dealtry.
“I feel sorry for the person who wrote it, they obviously have a very insular outlook and need help to control their emotions.” explained Liam.
The letter arrived a day after Cllr Dealtry had appeared on Look North where he was singing the praises of Bridlington as a holiday destination.
In the live teatime broadcast on the regional news programme he also joked with host Peter Levy and weatherman Paul Hudson about providing an accurate weather forecast for the town during the current spell of hot weather which went down well with the seasoned broadcasters.
“I know I am vociferous when it comes to telling anyone and everyone what a fantastic town Bridlington is… and I will continue to do so.”
The letter also contained false references to Cllr Dealtry’s time in the Royal Pioneer Corps and is littered with badly spelt expletives and abusive terms.
Added Cllr Dealtry: “If the person who wrote the letter has any dignity left I would like them to come and have a chat with me and discuss in an amicable and grown up way any of the points that they raised – I’m not angry – just sad that the anonymous letter writer feels the way he or she does.”
The unsigned letter has been reported to the police and logged with officers at Bridlington.
