Candidate who stood against the popular LTNs in Islington was the least popular candidate with just 7% of the vote. It leaves Jody Graver free to concentrate on his upcoming trial on intimidation, cocaine and ABH charges https://twitter.com/CalumFraser4/status/1390635745438838786
And Niall Cowley, who stood against the popular LTNs in Hoxton, also receives just 7% of the votes in the Hoxton East council by election. People friendly streets are popular. The noisy minority motorists are not.
Martyn Perks, who stood as an anti LTN candidate in Islington comes last by quite some distance, with just 4% of votes https://twitter.com/IslingtonBC/status/1390697734953439239?s=19
And finally, Clair Battaglino, who stood in Kings Park ward in Hackney on an anti Low Traffic neighbourhood platform gets just 3% of votes there. She now has time to update her twitter name to show this rejection https://twitter.com/hackneycouncil/status/1390723295947935748?s=19
The Labour and Grenn parties, who support Low Traffic Neighbourhoods, got a combined total of 79% of votes in this ward. The anti LTN candidate got 3%. People friendly streets are popular
Conservative candidate stood in the Holloway by-election on a platform of "Islington having it's road reopened" and received 14% of votes, versus the Labour and Greens pro-LTN 74% of votes https://twitter.com/HarryNugent10/status/1377941960795754496
Here is Shaun Bailey campaigning in Lambeth claiming "everybody wants the LTNs removed". He received 20% of votes in the Lambeth & Southwark constituency
Tony Devenish stood on a platform on ripping out the Kensington High Street and Park Lane cycle lanes. He saw his majority slashed from over 14,000 to just over 2,000 to become a marginal seat https://twitter.com/Tony_Devenish/status/1383707491389689858
Here are the five @IslingtonTories candidates at the anti LTN demo at Islington Town Hall last week, which attracted a smaller crowd than most weddings there do. All five lost, two of them coming third, being the pro-LTN Labour and Greens https://twitter.com/ZakVora/status/1388773577193840646
