A PARISH council has asked a Reform UK councillor to stay away from their meetings after he came under fire for his choice of words in social media posts.

- By MAIL REPORTER

Peter Mason, below, councillor for Burton South at Staffordshire County Council, apologised after the posts, dating from 2023 and 2024, recently surfaced. He was elected to the council in May 2025.

The cabinet member for strategic highways has since deleted his X account and said he was affected by grief and redundancy at the time he made the posts.

Horninglow and Eton Parish Council passed a motion to say Cllr Mason was no longer welcome at future parish meetings.

Reform UK said his case had been reviewed and there was no action to be taken.
