Wiffen, Paul – UKIP 54 (2.13%) (2.90%)
[The second percentage is the combined party percentage from the May elections.]

Congratulations to Wes Streeting who was elected.

Many thanks to all those residents who voted Green. As you can see our percentage of the poll increased from 11.22% in May to 16.27% this time around. We are making steady progress and have put down a firm marker for next time. It shows that Greens can be elected and that a Green vote is not wasted. You never know, next time we may have Alternative Voting or some other form of Proportional Representation.

  2. Has this blog now been closed? Two weeks of silence from Wilson Chowdhry - that has to be a record!

  3. I seem to recall a recent FOUR week silence from one Morris Hickey while he was on holiday in a country that presumably is not connected to the internet.

  4. A holiday is a holiday, Weggis. You know - no fags, no booze, no BMW...... and, apparently, now no Wilson Chowdhry! [Oh, the power of prayer!].
