Thank You

Election Results: Conservative candidates John Beesley, Barry Goldbart and Ian Newport were returned as councillors for the Westbourne and West Cliff ward on May 3rd. The three Conservative candidates enjoyed a considerable majority over the nearest other party candidates. Councillors Beesley and Goldbart have been appointed to the Cabinet and Councillor Newport to the Planning Board.

Councillor Newport says "We would like to thank all those people who helped us during the campaign, our agent Wendy and of course the voters in the ward who supported us. Now the hard work really starts, but I am confident that with such a big majority on the council we are finally in the position to get things done".
