Local Election Press Conference Part 1

Martin Bell OBE, the former Independent MP, will be joined by Tom Bletsoe, the UK's youngest elected politician, and Tony Eggington, the first independently elected Mayor, at a press conference launching the Independent Network's local election campaign.

At the Pleasance Theatre, Islington, the expertise of experienced independent campaigners will be combined with politicians of the next generation for the first time.

The Independent Network is the only campaigning organisation that promotes and supports independent candidates and non-party politicians. Ahead of the Local Elections 2011 the Independent Network has launched a recruitment drive to encourage those dissatisfied with party political representation to stand for local government positions.
