Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Lists of prospective council candidates?
Does anyone know if I can get a contact list of the candidates, party or otherwise, for the borough, especially the new ones? I have the handy list as supplied by Cllr Stanton of incumbents, it's the upstarts that are more elusive. I have names for some wards but no contact info. There are some questions I want to ask them all, which will affect my vote and likely others'.

With the greatest of respect, what's the point Pamish? You got a vote in your local selection meeting which is worth 1000 times more than the votes you are looking at casting in May. Your ward will elect the three Labour candidates you and a handful of other members selected last September.

yes i did realise at the time that it was probably the most meaningful vote I'd ever cast. But I want to find out who will be supporting the community plan for Wards Corner, and we can then advise voters re whether their candidate is worth their X. I reckon with all the recent scandals, yacht trips paid for by some of the Grainger bung coming back at them etc, some of the Labour hopefuls are feeling less secure. Seven Sisters could go Tory with the right block votes.

If you have Blackberry Messenger you can organise something like that. Good luck.

It's been used to organise everything from insider trading to riots, go for it.

As one of the Conservative candidates for Seven Sisters, I am totally in favour of the community plan. My opposition to Grainger/Haringey is not new: I have a long track record of campaigning against the Labour-run council and their pet poodles, Grainger. Restoration, not demolition!

A full list of candidates will eventually be published on the council's website nearer election time.

Hi Pam
I understand that there is a process still to go through before someone can be declared as a local government candidate (even though they have been selected to represent a party in a ward).
I think each candidate needs 10 nominations from residents in the ward they wish to stand and a form needs to be formally registered with local authority.

No-- the law changed a while back. Anyone can call themselves a candidate - before or after nominations open/close.
All candidates need a proposer and seconder, and eight fellow residents to support their nomination (that does NOT mean that they have to vote for them).
A candidate has to have have worked, lived or owned property within an authority, eg, Haringey, over the past 12 months. Most candidates will be in the register, but not all (see above)/

What is different from what you said to what I said Justin?
When am I getting a copy of your fake guardian?
