Three new councillors elected to Atherstone Town Council

By James Smith 7th May 2021

Three new councillors have today been elected to Atherstone Town Council, all to fill vacant positions within the Central Ward.

Pauline Gurney has been elected as a Conservative councillor, whilst Martin Barnett and Derek Pickard will both represent Labour.

All three received more votes than Jake Braithwaite, also Labour, in what was a fairly narrow split.

Following the co-option of Cllr Stacey Wightman last week, Atherstone Town Council is now back to its full compliment of councillors.

Pauline Gurney, Conservative - 383

Martin Barnett, Labour - 294

Derek Pickard, Labour - 276

Jake Braithwaite, Labour - 219
