TORIES CONSOLIDATE
The Conservatives kept the same majority of 13, just like the 2007 election. The only change being seven new councillors, including two married couples.
One new Tory is Shirley Shilton (pictured), wife of Dave Shilton, who were both elected in Park Hill. The other married couple are Erica and Richard Davies, elected in St. John’s.
Tory, John Cooke returns to the town council after 20 long years away, he had previously served from 1979 to 1991. New to the Tories is John Dagg, who was easily elected in St. John’s.
The Lib-Dems have a new face, Katherine Dickson who was elected in Abbey ward along with veteran Pat Ryan who retained his seat, which he has held for the past eight years.
Spoilt Papers Galore
A not so good statistic of the election was the amount of spoilt ballot papers. Each ward had over 100, totalling 449 in all. A record by a long way. The official reasons given for the spoilt papers were: ‘being un-marked’, ‘wholly void for uncertainty’ or for ‘voting for too many candidates’. However, it has to be noted that the Labour party did not put forward any candidates in this election, which may have resulted in some sort of ‘protest vote’, due to their non-participation.
John Whitehouse, Lib-Dem, WCC member for Abbey ward, said that he found it very interesting that the Lib-Dems called for a smaller town council, and then people voted for fewer councillors than the number they were allowed to vote for on their ballot paper.
