Mr Edward Baines (Conservative) - MARTINSTHORPE WARD (Chairman of the Rutland County Council) advice to candidate.
A Tory voter and Retired Army Officer and resident of Greetham Rutland asked Cllr Baines.
If he wanted to win the election in May should he stand as a Conservative or Independent?
Cllr Baines reply surprised me, stand as a Independent and you have a good chance of winning.
I wonder if he was hoping this would topple the Leader
Mr Roger B Begy (Conservative) - GREETHAM WARD (Leader of the Council)
Does he think the Tory Members have no hope of being elected?
