I mean over here in the UK we don’t have much experience of guns but those stormtroopers look scary. Very impressed by the people brave enough to oppose them

It’s a built up area. The advance candidate stood in both this and the horsley election. He got 1.6% of the vote here.
I don’t think anyone thought there would be a large turnout on a wet Tuesday. Even the postal votes didn’t arrive till the Friday before so goodness knows how many weren’t returned

We had to work hard over the last month to get there but we are happy bunnies. It’s an odd ward split over a number of different communities. The ultra right in Heanor are only a stones throw away

Well hidden but worth it. Past the shelves of observers books and the doors on the left. Bit of a scramble up a rocky path

We put a lot more effort into activities like leafleting than the reform lot and reform couldn’t get a candidate who actually lived in the ward

We have a great team. We delivered 4 leaflets to every house in the weeks before the election and then targeted ones to postal voters and also people who said they might show vote green. We also had a candidate who was local unlike reform
