Cheshire West and Chester Councillor

Statement from Hugo Deynem;

I have lived in the area for almost 50 years and very much hope to have the honour of representing our community on the Borough Council. In one of my latest Newsletters keeping residents in touch with what's happening in the area, I mistakenly assumed that the candidate standing for the Liberal Democrats in the forthcoming election did not live in the ward. For the first time, candidates at local elections this year can choose whether or not to disclose where they live. In the address section the candidate put "address in borough of Cheshire West and Chester, which I assumed meant not within the ward. I now know this not to be the case and apologise unreservedly for my incorrect assumption.
