Labour’s Paul Lakin has been a councillor in Rotherham for a decade, rising to the heady ranks of Deputy Leader.

Not only does he still have a job in Rotherham as Cabinet member for Children, Young People and Families Services, according to his Register of Interests, he is also on the Local Government Association’s Young People’s Board.

He is also Yorkshire and Humber’s Lead Member of the Children’s Service Network.

And don’t forget the member of Rotherham Safeguarding Children’s Board.

Shameless.
