So today Richard Grosvenor has quit in the continuing fall-out caused by the arrest of town mayor Mike Mayberry.

So we have lost a man in the Council who has had two terms of wearing these chains and has done so with pride an honour.

Nobody has a bad word to say regarding Richard Grosvenor so, It is time for the keyboard warriors to do something about Mike Mayberry still begging the face of our town.

Growing up in the area I have always thought the mayor was somebody to look up to, in my earlier day's in the school sports whenever there was something going on locally, the Mayor would be there.

Do we really want this man to be the face of our community ?

A man who has not really made any good statement's regarding what happened only on facebook which started a bit of an argument again, maybe not a great thing for the mayor to do.

He was also quoted in the Pembrokeshire Herald as saying he failed a swab test for cannabis. Although he has apparently been exonerated of the charge of drug driving, we are concerned that, as he admitted failing a swab test, he may be a user of illegal drugs which reflects badly on the town.

I for one don't and maybe this is just my opinion on this but if am not please sign the petition.

Everything feels so heavy after Richard quit but I am honestly still reeling from the mess Mike has made of our town image. People keep sending me messages about the Facebook drama and it is just exhausting to watch a grown man act like that while the rest of us try to hold things together.

I honestly did not think this would gain this much steam but here we are and it feels like the town is finally waking up. It is strange to see so many people agreeing that we deserve better than this mess especially since the whole situation with the mayor has been hanging over us like a dark cloud for way too long.

A Mayor should be an ambassador for the town he or she represents, a figurehead that its citizens lookup to and respect. My view is that Cllr Mike Mayberry has fallen well short of the qualities needed for this diplomatic roll and should resign immediately.

Mike Mayberry has no class. No matter how low you are people in public life should be accountable for their actions. If he had any integrity for the role or the people he represents he should resign. End of.

Drug Driving is wrong regardless of if it was a low or high amount on the bloods, and when you are in a roll of authority and are meant to show right and wrong you need to review your actions,

I was disgusted after reading a conversation on facebook where "the mayor" verbally attacked someone on a community paige telling her to go back to where she comes from as she wasn't born here but has lived here over 20 yrs... he told her to "bore off" ... absolutely disgusting way to speak to someone!!

I was not aware Mike Mayberry was the mayor, it was only after he verbally abused me on a goodwick and Fishguard page on social media, and someone privately mailed me to say , disgusting way for a mayor to speak to someone, he's a disgrace!!!

Fishguard has had many minor issues over the years. It is clear that Mike Mayburry is not the man to move the town forward. The line about 'being under the limit' for driving under the influence of drugs is rubbish! That offence is a yes or no answer. Are you under the influence, yes or no? Clearly by his own admission he is a regular user, as a result he should go and people should not use an open drug user to coach their children kayaking either, he won't be insured if he is under the influence!

Shameful on several counts. He should go. This behaviour is not acceptable for anyone in public office and representing others.
