Nominations for THE BIGGEST set of Elections, outside of a General Election year in British history have duly closed today.
And I am a small proof of that - as per Page 19 of this document and being one of 81 people, seeking 22 Council seats up for Election here in The City of Wolverhampton!
4 Weeks today, sees the following up for grabs (as complied by LabourList):
How do you think May 6th will produce? Will this "Vaccine Bounce" for Boris or a "Post-Corbyn Boost" for Keir be the truthful story? Can the Greens continue there rise in Local Government and what will a Ed Davey led Lib Dems produce?
P.S - due to the Pandemic and the slow nature of the count this year, expect wall-to-wall coverage for reportedly 4 days!
