St Mary's Ward West, parish by-election, East Riding of Yorkshire Council

A great many thanks to everyone for the substantial Green vote on July 30th. We scored just under 25% and came a good second to the Conservatives. There was a 24% turnout, so-so for a ward by-election, and all the results were as follows:

CON - 331 - 41%
GRE - 199 - 25%
IND - 144 - 18%
LD - 128 - 16%

With best wishes,
Charlie Jones-Lewis

Tremendously well done Charlie!
We look forward to more scores like that across the country!

Charlie has lived and worked in Beverley for some years. She has a growing interest in how local communities grow whether it's play areas for kids, or where a hospital may be sited or how an area looks and feels.

• We must move on from coal as major energy producer
• Wind could actually supply 3x UK energy needs
• Whole range of renewable energy needed
• Need better communication with local communities on issue
• Major investment needed now
• Reductions in energy we use
• Government must commit to this.
