Election candidates finalised

Two Conservatives and two South Holland Independent candidates will stand for council seats currently vacant following the death of Coun Angela Newton in August.

As previously reported, Stephen Timewell and Sam Chauhan are standing for the Monkshouse ward on South Holland District Council.

There’s also only two candidates for Coun Newton’s former Spalding West division seat on Lincolnshire County Council.

Both Independent Manzur Hasan and Conservative Paul Redgate are already district councillors but hoping to be elected county councillors too.

The election is due to be held on Thursday, December 8.
