Bristol City councillor disqualified weeks after local election - BBC News
The primary school teacher can't be a councillor because she works for a council-run school.
Ms Vittori said she was "unaware" about about the potential conflict of interest, adding it is a "great shame that this did not come to light earlier in the process".

Huh, I get why the rule is in place but this sounds pretty borderline. It's not like she's in a position where she's likely to financially benefit from her councillor role.
It might be about undue influence or something like that? Who knows, seems a bit daft if you ask me. But then also seems like something the party could have and should have checked beforehand. It doesn't look good that they CBA'd.
Yeah the party really half-arsed that.
