The Island Conservatives have today (22 March) announced they have a “full set of candidates for the May 2013 local elections to the Isle of Wight Council”.
The 40 candidates include 17 current councillors and 23 new candidates.
The announcement on the Island Conservatives Website states, “Conservative councillors have a strong track record of listening to the concerns of local residents, rolling their sleeves up and getting things done. Many are involved in local initiatives and parish council activity, as well as serving on school governing bodies and other local organisations. The group of Conservative councillors work together as a team to make the right decisions for the Island’s future, and give the local authority a clear direction.”
