This should be interesting. Following the death of Russell Radford, there's an election in Bengeo for the town council seat he left vacant. What's interesting is that there's no Tory candidate

Vote UKIP or Hertford will end up looking like Luton, go on Youtube and type in Muslim Luton and see for yourself.

Have been on Youtube and had a look yet at what is heading YOUR way or are you going to stay blind and blinkered as to what is going on around you ?

I suspect with no Conservative it will be a low turnout!

I think even the insanity that is UKIP would struggle to act locally to enforce anything based purely on religion. Not only is it ridiculous, offensive and just plain stupid it is simply illegal.
I love the way that any UKIP representative will, spontaneously and without prompting, point out that they are not a racist organisation - even if you're just asking for their opinion on bicycle safety.

Thankfully I think most residents of Hertford are well educated and rational.

I think the poor Strigiform was a bit of a trollet on the previous forum & seems to have got worse on the new one. Best ignore the xenaphobic old boy/girl. As much to help them as anything else......

As l understand it, the Conservatives are not putting up a candidate because of there being full elections next year!!
Seems a bit daft to me, like saying 'it's only for a year so why bother!!!!!'

I take it you read the comments underneath Darcy and as one person put it, don't let the truth get in the way of a good story and if you believe what the Newstatesman have written then you will believe anything.
