When a recount was reported I assumed it involved the independent. A real stunner! The Indy must have taken a lot of votes off Labour, and to be fair it is a Labour admin on Preston City Council idea to put football pitches on Ashton Park (albeit one I personally support!)

That Ashton Park development would have been enough, in other districts, to have created an independent/localist group I reckon. We don't tend to have breakaway parties here so it's not really in our culture. The result in Ashton ward does suggest that the backlash is a very Larches-led revolt.

I agree, plus I think the fact that Preston City Council is broadly popular for a 2nd-tier council helps avoid any major independent parties.
