Well we are now into April and only one month from now will be polling day, so as you can imagine the election campaign is now in full swing!!
The nominations for council are now closed so i can now reveal for mendip district council that there are six of us standing for two seats in my ward of st Thomas, wells. That includes myself and my other Conservative co-candidate Simon Davies who currently serving his country on deployment to help out with the libyan difficulties at the NATO command centre in North london. This is only a tempory deployement so will be back soon to represent his people of Wells which he has done so brillantly in the past.
We also have the two current lib dem councillors restanding and a labour and green party candidates confirmed!!
During my sessions of knocking on doors, which I have had many excellent responses from residents have raised a number of good local issues including local supermarket proposed developments, car parking in the city. and local building work. On top of that I have also hap people interested in the national voting referendum happening on the same day as local elections.
I very much hope I will have a chance to represent these great locals on the city and district council soon!!
