Summary

Opposition councillors walked out of a West Northamptonshire Council scrutiny meeting, accusing Reform UK councillors of reading pre-prepared speeches rather than engaging in genuine debate. The meeting was called to discuss new guidelines that could allow the council to place homeless households in private rental properties outside the council area. The walkout occurred during a cross-party call-in led by Cllr Sally Keeble, and the meeting has been widely described as a 'shambles'.
