Conservatives go missing in Islington
A sign of just how much the Conservatives are still struggling in many urban areas comes with the list of candidates for Islington Council.
This London borough has 16 3-member wards, but the Conservatives have not put up a full slate of candidates and have no candidates at all in five wards.
Their gaps are:
Clerkenwell – 2 Conservatives
Finsbury – no Conservatives
Highbury East – 2 Conservatives
Hillrise – no Conservatives
Holloway – no Conservatives
St Georges- no Conservatives
Tollington – no Conservatives
Quite the fall from political relevance in the borough.
