If you want a guaranteed seat on the city council you've probably left it a bit late ... but if you just want your name on a ballot paper in an unwinnable ward I expect you'll find that most parties will still have some vacancies, at least for the next few days. And of course you can always stand as an independent, no deposit necessary so nothing to lose (hi Paul). -- Tim Ward - posting as an individual unless otherwise clear Brett Ward Limited - www.brettward.co.uk Cambridge Accommodation Notice Board - www.brettward.co.uk/canb Cambridge City Councillor

Could we have the > full url or some indication which link to follow? Yes, sorry. All I have done, as in previous years, is to edit the individual ward results pages to include the names of the candidates in that ward. As others seem to have discovered, there is no single list of all the candidates in the city. This is even the case with the paper notices in the Guildhall. -- Colin Rosenstiel
