Hyndburn Borough Council election results 2010
Just seen on Facebook - Tim O'Kane is now a councillor again.
He's just beaten Nick Collingridge to take back his Clayton seat.

Rishton Candidate Party Votes
Chris Fisher Independent 380
Ken Moss Labour 1535
Ross Sourbutts Conservative 1384
It seems to me there's a difference for one person:-
Councillor Ross,
Congratulations, please, from now on just give us the juicy bit's when you post about Council Business.

Re: Hyndburn Borough Council election results 2010
Whoo-hoo!
Well done Ken, on winning Rishton.
I think it was your training on here that did it!
Good luck, H.B.C. needs new blood.

Re: Hyndburn Borough Council election results 2010
Well done Ken, good news for Rishton !!
And Bernard held it with no problems .. good 'un.
Was sorry that Nick lost his seat in Clayton though. Don't know Tim O'Kane, he always looks grumpy.

Re: Hyndburn Borough Council election results 2010
Its a few years since I used to work for HBC, but I remember Tim O'Kane as being a dedicated councillor. so well done, Tim. Bernard Dawson has been there forever and it would not be the same without him! Give Peter B grief from me, Bernard and Tim!
And Congratulations to Graham Jones on becoming the new MP. I know he is more connected with the town than Mr Pope ever was.

Correct Mani .. no change there this time. Suppose a sort of balance though.

Re: Hyndburn Borough Council election results 2010
I'd like to thank all those AccyWebbers who have sent messages of moral support, they were very much appreciated.
It's been something of a tiring two days so myself and Cllr Grayson are off to the pub to celebrate and wind down.
In credit to my Conservative opponent, he was extremely gracious in defeat and I look forward to working with him in the future on Rishton projects.

It's a bit like the national scene. Conservatives have more councillors but don't have overall control according to the Observer
" the council chamber tantalisingly balanced with the Conservatives still the largest party on 17, Labour up to 14, and the Independents down one to four. "
I would guess there will be a vacancy soon
