A row has erupted after a DUP councillor made what some have called 'sexist remarks' at last night's Belfast City Council meeting. Councillor Graham Craig remarked on the 'pleasure' of seeing the council's chief executive 'whizzing past him' on her bike in the mornings. He said it 'does quicken up one's step slightly'.
