I wrote a blog soon after the elections, on the political
make up of the new town council, (here).
I stated that looking at the list of those elected and the
parties they represent at first glance no Conservatives had been elected, when
in fact in the 10 independents there were at least 3.
I was wrong; it would appear that there are at least 4 and
very possibly 5, if I'm correct, then the Conservatives make up a quarter of
the council. This makes them the equal largest group on the Council, with the
remaining independents, but not one of them stood for council under their true
colours.
Moreover, boy have they been busy, getting themselves voted
in as Chairman of two of the committee’s, one vice chair and deputy mayor.
Normally politics does not play a big part on town and parish councils, certainly that has been the
case on Penzance Town Council, this always changes once the Tory’s get a few
members, one way or another, they become very controlling.
