Parish Council Results.


Recommended Posts

Thanks for posting the link. I've been looking through these, and noticed at two candidates (R Major) and (A Pegg) have been elected to represent both West Bedlington and East Bedlington (Sleekburn) wards.

Is this allowed? If not, do they have to give up one of their seats to another candidate? Does there have to be another election? As ever the county council web site is hopeless.

Well monsta maybe you should have stood as BNP......?

Is the low turnout down to voter apathy or not having enough choice?

Saw one of the Labour candidates that didn't quite make it earlier, parking illegally in a disabled parking spot in a busy carpark... suppose they need to break the rules somehow...

Well it seems we now have a Town Council instead of a Parish council? What is the difference........the councillors get to elect a mayor. Take a bow Councillor Pegg errr....... Mayor of West Bedlington Town Council.

Hmmmm. The article refers to a 'South Bedlington', as far as I'm aware, there is only North, East and West Bedlington.
