The major changes are as follows: - Vange ward is abolished. The parts north of the railway line move into St Martin's, which becomes a 3-member ward, the south-east is added to Pitsea SE and the south-west is added to Nethermayne.
- Langdon Hills gains the Lee Chapel South area from Nethermayne and becomes a 3-member ward
- Wickford Park becomes a 3-member ward and adds a small area from Wickford Castledon
- The rest of Castledon is combined with the 2-member Crouch ward in a new 3-member Castledon and Crouch ward
This shifts one councillor north of the A127 compared to the present situation, which benefits the Tories. I would imagine our position in Pitsea SE is strengthened a little, given that Vange is a Labour ward more often than not, but that's based on the assumption that there's no great difference between voting behaviour in the different bits of the ward and it won't be a huge impact in any case. In Nethermayne, the independents have a big enough lead that the changes probably aren't a problem. I was going to say that the changes to Langdon Hills make it a slightly easier reach for Labour, but checking recent results it appears that the primary challenge lately has come from independents.

As it has also in Wickford Park, so the extra seat may benefit Independents more than either of Conservative or Labour.

There may be some alliances here but, still very surprised that Lab has not been determined to field a full slate

So far Lab win all seats in Fryerns and Pisea SE, Independents all 3 in Nethermayne, while Wickford Park is split two Wickford Indies and one Conservative the fuckwitted website only shows the votes for the winning candidates

This seems like the best result Labour could hoped for.
