The go ahead has been given to allow the May County council elections on May 6th to elect new counillors for Leicestershire County Council.
We are calling out for anyone interested in standing as a candidate to get in touch with us.
In a twist of fate, we will not currently be allowed to distribute any leaflets for this electoin cycle as although it is not illegal under the current laws, the Conservative party has written a letter saying that political leafletting should not be allowed which has created a grey area in the law that can only be tested in court.
Of course, the conservative and Labour parties will be able to afford to pay for a professional delivery of their literature which the Green party feels will put small parties at a disadvantage.
