Cambridgeshire councillor gets emotional over 'immense hostility'A councillor became emotional as she urged people to show more respect to those with different opinions.
Heather Williams, Conservative member of South Cambridgeshire District Council, was addressing a Greater Cambridge Partnership meeting about now-shelved plans for a congestion charge in Cambridge. She told an audience: "The hostility against those who support it, those who are against it, has been immense and has been awful."
Proposals were in place to charge drivers at least £5 a day to drive into or around the city in peak times, but political support for the plans was withdrawn.
