The election for the new post of Police and Crime Commissioner for the Avon and Somerset Police Authority area, will take place on Thursday 15th November. Whatever your opinions on the rights and wrongs of elected Police Commissioners, it is fact and it WILL happen, throughout the UK on the 15th November. Our Conservative Candidate is Ken Maddock, ex leader of Mendip District Council, and it is vital for the future of policing and public order that we get him (and all his fellow Conservative candidates) elected on the 15th November. We hope to be able to arrange a “meet and greet” evening with Ken at Tudor House and will let you all have the details as soon as they firm up. In the mean time, please visit Kens’ Web Page at www.kenmaddock.org.uk and stand by for a call to arms as soon as we have an election plan in place.
