That is a very biased account of events concerning the Lord Mayor ,I'd even go do far as to say it verges on propaganda . I thought T&R had higher standards than that !! At least get your facts right . Firstly the Lord Mayor was not asked to clarify why he closed the library , he was asked to clarify why he lied. Secondly..the phone didn't just go spiralling, the Lord Mayor actually purposely knocked it out of Lahive s hand and it went flying in the air and hit a passerby on the head which created the brief physical tossel between Lahive and the Lord Mayor .

Hmm.. it's still very biased and not accurate . Where did you get the notion that Lahive is " alt right " ? These labels get thrown around to strip normal people who want to highlight corruption and use their right to free speech and peaceful protest of credibility etc . It is your job as a journalist to get as much of the full story as possible . Did you make any attempt to talk to Lahive about the matter ?
