I am pleased to let you know that I was re-elected as County Councillor for Gipping Valley. The results were
Liberal Democrats 1250 John Field
Conservatives 739 John Whitehead
Suffolk Together 715 Michael Blakenham
Labour 160 Terry Wilson
Thank you to all who voted for me and to the Lib Dem Team who helped me write and deliver our leaflets, particularly Martin Redbond and my wife Kay. The leaflets I hope let you know what I have delivered over the last four years and the focus for the next four or the period up to a unitary council.
My sincere congratulations at your hat-trick of County wins. Thank you for the civilised and gentlemanly way in which the campaign was conducted. 2013 seems a long time for a re-match!
Glad to see that enough people had the sense to vote for a hard working and excellent local councillor, and not let national government scandals influence their decision making , congratulations .
