Rumours are that Nich Starling - he of NorfolkBlogger fame - is set to contest the Taverham North by-election set to be held on 18th March. Nich is a former Councillor from North Norfolk and seemed to enjoy being free of council responsibilities and now, if true, he is set for a rollercoaster of elections with this election leading into the next General Election. Strangely I haven't heard about a Conservative candidate yet, but it seems the Greens are putting up - nothing from Labour.
The result last time (taking top results) was Conservatives 497, Lib Dems 344 & Independent 295.
At least its not Iain Dale who is going to be the Tory candidate.
ReplyDeleteHe is a hopeless failure in all respects of Politics. Remember North Norfolk 2005?
But he does run a very good blog indeed.
ReplyDeleteIain Dale standing in Taverham North? now that would be interesting.
ReplyDeleteThorpe Marriott awaits the DVDs thru their doors with baited breath
Who is the Green candidate?
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to finding out who the Tory candidate is.
Antony, do you think Labour will also run in this by-election?
Historically Labour doesn't do well in local elections in Taverham.
