Shaftesbury Town Hall and Cllr Karen Tippins and Cllr Peter Yeo Two Shaftesbury town councillors have been told their actions have brought the council into disrepute. Peter Yeo and Karen Tippins have been ordered to make a full apology at the next town council meeting and attend an approved code of conduct course. A Dorset Council hearing heard that Cllr Peter Yeo had been excluded from meetings five times in the past year after trying to question the council’s spending. He was also found to have made an obscene gesture to a committee chairman and repeatedly mouthed a rude word after his microphone was turned off at one online meeting.
