Don't forget the local elections are tomorrow !

I love that being near to a police headquarters is a bad thing for the asylum center, surely thats a benefit to it's placement if the cops can see it from their windows?

Conversely it is to be located near 2 schools, so asylum seekers are both brazen and depraved.

Bit quiet when I voted, half 5 and only one there.

Great unwashed and I voted about 11.30ish. No-one in Trinity Church either.

 

[Thehooperman]

No voters at Parkside polling station at 19.30 tonight.

Both churches at Rising Brook are polling stations, the one I was in at 6 seemed to do a good trade.

Ours in Worcester was empty when I went mid morning. More candidates standing around than voters. (And only the one had bothered to come around to convass in the area a couple of times. Had no other literature though the door . First time I saw the other party candidates was outside the polling station , and even they seemed disinterrested when I asked where to go.)

Does anyone know when the Stafford results are expected ?

Sky News said between 2pm and 4pm.

 

[Mudgie]

Thank you.

 

[Lucy]

You know we'll be disappointed.

 

[rudie111]

Fingers crossed!

 

[tek-monkey]

You know we'll be disappointed.

We had 5 choices. 2 blue, 2 red, 1 green. Most blue won't vote red and vice versa, and we were meant to choose 2, so unsure how that will play out.

When it changes, nothing will change.

All you will hear is we were left with a mess by the outgoing lot.

Please be patient whilst we repair the damage done previously.

Half a century might be enough.

Results are coming in (https://www.facebook.com/StaffordBCouncil)

Rowley Ward - Green
Forebridge Ward - Lab
Commion Ward - Lab

 

[PeterD]

It is marvellous that Green have won this ward, he is local, he cares, he has been tirelessly campaigning and he isnt a tory.

Looking like averaging low 30% turnout, about normal?

Farrington's been kicked out.

Good riddance.

Shame Winnington is still there...

I see some ashamed tories masquerading as independents have been re-elected. But so far a fairly good showing for the greens.
