Local government and Mayoral elections on 2nd May [View all]
It's that time of year again, and this year we have local government elections, Mayoral elections (including London Mayor) and Police and Crime Commissioner elections. Please let us know about what elections are on where you live this May, and what local issues are where you live.
This year I have another round of Sheffield City Council elections, with the ward where I live being a close fought contest as always. Big local issues being poor public transport and poorly maintained roads (the councils ongoing PFI contract with Amey for road maintenance being an ongoing sore point).
With the Mayor of South Yorkshire also taking on the tile of Police and Crime Commissioner we also have a Mayoral election, which I expect Labour's Oliver Coppard to win easily.
The main contest the media are focusing on is of course the London Mayoral election.
