Coverage of Local Elections in the Chinese media
Statement from Sarah Cheung Johnson in South Cambridgshire (Longstanton Ward): "We would like to thank the wonderful team that stand behind us and have made this election victory possible. Only those who have experienced an election campaign can know the hours, hard work and dedication that goes into winning an election - even more so a patch that has never had a Liberal Democrat (and now has 2!) Across South Cambs many residents felt the need for change, for strong, active representation and to stand up for our villages The LibDems won 30 of the 45 seats and now have overall control of the District Council. This will allow us to enact real change and allow us to hold to account local government in a region already represented by a Tory run County Council, Tory Mayor and Tory MP.
