Green Councillor elected at Sizewell local Council

and Leiston ward in Thursday’s East Suffolk Council by-election – and came
within two votes of winning the other. Tom Daly is the first Green
councillor elected in the area which includes much of the site of the
proposed new Sizewell C power station. He will be joined on the council by
Conservative Russ Rainger – who was a county councillor for the area before
standing down in May. The second Green candidate, Matt Oakley, came only
two votes behind Mr Rainger. Suffolk Coastal Green Party chairman Julian
Cusak said on Facebook: “Great result for the Green Party last night.
Aldeburgh and Leiston now has its first Green councillor on East Suffolk
Council.
