Angry scenes following end of planning meeting

Labour councillors will not be attending meetings of a planning committee at City Hall until they are satisfied that a number of their concerns about its running have been met.

As Bristol24/7 reported on Wednesday, some members of the public shouted at councillors following the conclusion of a meeting which saw members grant permission by five votes to three to approve the expansion of South Bristol Cemetery & Crematorium onto land currently used by Yew Tree Farm.
