max Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Irrelevant to this thread, though. Not really, he's a sitting councillor and, as next year all 84 seats are up for election, he may well choose to defend his seat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffrey Shaw Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Not really, he's a sitting councillor and, as next year all 84 seats are up for election, he may well choose to defend his seat. But, seven months away, it's unlikely that anyone's decided anything yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickyM Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 I believe that it aims to stand in all 28 wards. Why do you ask? So that people in my area have a proper choice of candidates, rather than the usual bunch of parties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biotechpete Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Will UKIP be standing in what is now Central ward? I know the names are changing along with the boundaries. Flipping heck, I didn't realise the boundaries were changing again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickyM Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Flipping heck, I didn't realise the boundaries were changing again. Yes, they last changed in 2004 but need to change again due to population changes. Some wards have seen huge increases to their population (Central and Broomhill) whilst a few haven't seen any changes at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
