Grim reaper appears in Downham Market following uproar

The Grim Reaper was seen in Downham Market today, after a meeting was called to oust the current Mayor and other councillors.

Since the licences of two traders have been revoked following uproar at a council meeting, residents of the normally sleepy market town have gathered in force to protest the move.

This morning people gathered in the market square which now has only seven stalls.

The Grim Reaper was posted on Facebook, standing alone in the market square with a plastic scythe.

Kay Waring said: "Very brave well done."

Sally Gooderson said: "The person in question did amazingly, well done!"
