First of all, may I congratulate ALL the candidates for putting themselves up for election.
The public have voted and democracy takes it’s course.
I would personally congratulate Mr. Michael Fisher for being elected for the County Council Ward of Whittlesey South (this being my own Roy Gerstner Ward for Whittlesey Town Council and Fenland Distruict Council) and I am sure we can work together for the best in the interest of our community and electorate.
Supporting today at the count our Independent candidate Barry Wainwright came a respectable 3rd in the Whittlesey South Ward, probably enough to have ‘split’ the vote and allowing the Reform Candidate Mr. Fisher a very credible majority over Dr. Haq Nawaz (The pictures tell the story).
All Kudos to Barry for standing up…..

Mr Michael Fisher (R) Dr Haq Nawaz (Con)

In the North Ward, Incumbent FDC Leader and WTC Councillor Chris Boden takes the seat – not without a fight and a very much reduced majority.
Elsewhere the ‘Conserative Heavyweights, Steve Tierney, Sam Hoye, both re-elected in Wisbech.
Two Conservative Heavyweights beaten, Steve Count (ex leader of Cambs CC) and Ann Hay the sitting candidate.

To top off the day, my once every 4 years passing/meeting with MP Steve Barclay, who I have to say, always remembers my name and has a smile to greet me…..thank you Steve.
