New Councillor Roger Baines
Roger Baines has been elected as the new councillor for the Houghton Conquest, Haynes, Southill and Old Warden ward of Mid Beds District Council.
With 55.2% of the vote, Roger achieved a famous victory in what was once a safe Tory stronghold. Labour managed just 3.3%, and the Tories shrunk to 41.5%. Labour have again finished a very poor last place in Mid Beds.
In his victory speech, Roger acclaimed the hard work his team had put into the election, and declared that it was a privilege to have been elected to work hard for the local community.
The full result is as follows:
Lib Dem - 741, (55.2% +14.2%)
Tory - 555, (41.5% - 10.5%)
Labour - 44, (3.3% +3.3%)
