Ramsey - Allinson top in North Ward, Radcliffe in South Ward

Ratepayers in Ramsey have given their mandate to the local authority for the next four years.

It was a night of few changes.

There was an emphatic victory in North Ward for local GP Dr Alexander Allinson, who polled 916 votes.

Wilf Young, Nigel Malpass and newcomers Lawrie Hooper, Graham Jones and John McDonough were the other successful candidates, with Christopher Mayers narrowly missing out.

Meanwhile long-serving commissioner Richard Radcliffe topped the poll with 444 votes in South Ward.

Stephen Rand was second, with existing commissioners Sylvia Beattie, Steve Bevan and Geoff Quayle completing the top five and newcomer Anthony Harmer netting the sixth and final spot on the board ahead of Pat Ayres.
