Reading that, 'Green' is the right word.

The link's stopped working - Solihull Observer must have taken the story down.

Couldn't find anything for Nuneaton - will keep looking.

I see people are digging all the c**p on the Conservative Party just in time for the elections.

It's a dirty business, Lex. Locally we've had a facebook discussion with our ward councillors. The sitting councillor (current leader of the council) hasn't bothered to show his face; another couple haven't bothered, or attended half heartedly.

I usually grill those wanting my vote, but I've not bothered this time; the obvious disdain they hold the electorate in has been quite clear to anyone that has bothered to look. My votes went in the post last Friday, I did 'spoil' one paper.

I've got an idea of who to vote for in 1 election, but, like you Rebbonk, I might spoil another one.

The Conservatives have taken Nuneaton & Bedworth: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-coventry-warwickshire-57020787

The Tories have done well in Stratford's County Council wards too: https://www.stratford-herald.com/news/tories-pleased-with-county-council-election-results-so-far-9198360/

They've got the majority of seats on the council: https://stratfordobserver.co.uk/news/conservatives-strengthen-grip-on-warwickshire-county-council-29506/

Labour's still going strong on Coventry: https://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/tories-hail-fantastic-gains-coventry-20551561

Solihull is a Conservative council, with the Greens as the biggest opposition group: https://solihullobserver.co.uk/news/labour-and-lib-dems-suffer-as-tories-strengthen-grip-on-council/

I can't speak for other wards, but where I live the turnout was less than 25%! - Absolutely disgraceful.
