LETTERS – Election candidate clarifies

I have just read your candidates article on the Spalding St Paul’s by-election and I would like to note that ‘No Party Specified’ (Ed – as stated by South Holland District Council) is open to individual interpretation with people possibly thinking I may harbour socialist or far right inclinations.
I am listed as an unaffiliated Independent candidate and thus have no party allegiance.
Please can you make this clear as early as possible to avoid any voter prejudice.

Julian Wheeler,
candidate for the Spalding St Paul’s ward alongside Vanessa Browning (South Holland Independents), Aidan Forman for the Labour Party), Glynis Scalese (Conservatives), and Stephen Timewell (True Independent)
