Vanquished Lib Dem candidate Neil Bant told HU17.net he thoroughly enjoyed the electoral experience despite losing out in the St Mary’s Ward. Neil – who published a pie chart (pictured with the article) showing how Beverley had “turned blue” – was beaten to a seat by Irene Charis, Bryan Pearson and Elaine Aird. And while he was gracious in defeat, he questioned the commitment of the younger generation of voters…
New East Riding of Yorkshire Councillor David Elvidge admitted he was overwhelmed by the level of support that swept him into office in the Minster and Woodmansey Ward. David, 48, took the decision to stand in the county council elections after spending four years on the Beverley Town Council – one as Mayor. A born-and-bred Beverlonian, David cut a nervous figure at Beverley Leisure Centre as the votes were counted…
A delighted Kerri Harold hopes to use her next four years on the East Riding of Yorkshire Council to help deliver improved services, while providing the taxpayer with greater value.

She initially thought she and her fellow Conservative candidates were…
Irene Charis upset the odds to win a place on the East Riding of Yorkshire Council at the first time of asking.

Thursday May 5th is polling day for the Local Elections across England. Make sure you vote Conservative. Remember we need to stop Labour doing to the East Riding of Yorkshire Council what it did to the country for 13 years. We need every vote, so your vote really does count. Polling stations open at 7am and close at 10pm. Remember, we need every vote so yours does count. Need help…
Yes, for the first time in my life I (Shan Oakes) have been sufficiently moved about an issue to somewhat rudely e-mail (almost) my entire address book. Please forgive. Perhaps odd that the first event that should ever move me to such extremes is the Alternative Vote referendum, but there we are. Perhaps next week I shall e-mail about cuddly pandas or global poverty. But let’s start with AV. Doubtless…
Just a reminder that Thursday 5th May is the East Riding of Yorkshire Council Election day. Once again I ask for your support. I am still as passionate about Beverley and Woodmansey as I ever was, even more so now that I have seen what can be achieved when you try. Give me your vote and I promise to you is to do all I can to improve services for…
Election Day is upon us and all the parties and candidates are out pushing hard for votes in this final run up to polls. Local elections tend to be the less glamorous relations of national elections, but in the current climate where national government is making major spending decisions that have such serious local implications and which are being enforced on local councils to implement at a local level, these…
I am married to Shirley and am Beverley born and bred and would not want to live anywhere else. Beverley is part of me and I am part of it. I couldn’t think of a better place to live. My ward work is very important to me. I answer calls every week from people within the Ward who have problems, some minor some major, and I deal with them all….
I have been a resident of St Mary’s Ward for over 30 years and have one son, Gavin. He attended the local primary and secondary schools.

I helped organise the march from Saturday Market up to the entrance of the Westwood Hospital on New Year’s Day. I feel that at…
I would like you to vote for me as your councillor because I am passionate about fulfilling and meeting your needs. Whilst speaking to you on the phone and face to face, I realise that many of you have become disillusioned with the political process and with the politicians who do not understand the concerns that affect the lives of real people every day; often feeling that your views are…
David Elvidge wants to bring back personal responsibility, cut through red tape and maintain Beverley’s unique way of life. The Beverley Town councillor and former Mayor is hoping to make the step up to the East Riding of Yorkshire Council at next week’s election when he stands for the Conservative Party in the Woodmansey ward. David is well known as the driving force behind Beverley’s fantastic Armed Forces Day, but…
