In the Chingford Green by election:
This was caused by the sad death of Cllr Derek Arnold, a good friend who was the group whip at Waltham Forest back in my days on the council. The new Cllr, Andrew Hemsted, is a great young guy and a tireless campaigner. We spent a most productive morning on the trail last Saturday and things looked very positive. The result was:
Conservative (Andrew Hemsted) 1694
Lib Dem (Graham Woolnough) 1022
Labour (?) 208
UKIP (Bob Brock) 143
Labour's vote collapsed which does not bode well for them on Thursday.
We are already looking forward to the next local by election, which will take place in St Andrew's Ward, Havering.
Congratulations Andy!!
