This week has seen the first by-election called for May 5th; I expect there will be many more to come! The [new] vacancy for the Highland Council has arisen following the death of a Councillor who was elected as an Independent but subsequently joined the Scottish Nationalist group. Just in case you were wondering what the asterisk was for. There are two by-elections this week and you know the drill; preview Wednesday, tweeting Thursday night. There is only one more by-election scheduled before May after this week…
I used to live in Nuneaton and Bedworth council area and I can never recall there being a Shirley West ward. There is a Shirley ward in Solihull council area though.
