Cllr Bill Kay, a Labour member for the Glenrothes North, Leslie and Markinch ward of Fife Council, sadly passed away at the weekend. And I'm sorry to hear Margaret Bates has resigned from Kirklees. She was a lovely woman and dedicated councillor. Does anyone know the reason?

Nine candidates in Walkergate (Newcastle upon Tyne)! bit.ly/16mpFIfLib Dem, Labour, Conservative, UKIP, Green, Newcastle First, TUSC, two independents. It's not even a ward that has seen many candidates outside the three main parties. In fact, as far I remember the only candidates have been the BNP and the Communist Martin Levy's sometime ward. Neither are standing. The BNP seem to have disappeared as a force since their highpoints in Elswick and Fenham. More surprised not to see Levy stand as he did relatively well last year. Still have no idea why Tania Armstrong stood down after only one year.
