local elections

Congratulations to all our successful candidates. I was delighted to see that we won control in Woking after all the hard work put in by the candidates, it was a pleasure to help them.
On election day I also canvassed with Ian Rowley in Marylebone and had the fun of meeting Barbara Windsor - just as glamorous as she is on the film sets. Then later in the evening I went up to Abbey Road to help Lindsay Hall, who again had a great success - Labour into third place in both these elections.

Having seen how confusing the election results were in Scotland, I would remind everyone that we also have a confusing system in London next year with the Mayoral elections, so we need to ensure that our voters know how important it will be to vote.
