One of the Lib Dem councillors in Kentish Town has admitted that he can’t do the job from Arizona (when pushed), so we’re headed for a second council byelection in the Kentish Town ward of Camden council in two years. Not only a second byelection, but a second winter byelection.
Last time the Greens came second after the Lib Dems threw everything but the kitchen sink at it, but this time electors have had much more time to see what the Lib Dem Tory ruling council is like, and we won the Highgate byelection in May, so it is eminently winnable.
However, I do fear one of those sets of unlit Victorian basement steps will be the death of me… and as for what happened to the promise “I’m going to get a balanced life”…. oh well – maybe 2009.
(BTW: There’s also a by-election running in Hampstead Town, for which we have an excellent candidate, Anya Reeve.)
