The PCC elections were the same this time round as in all the previous elections.

The successful candidate is supposed to work impartially once elected, irrespective of whether they were an independent candidate or one nominated by a recognised political party.

Whether one likes it or not, it's the system which was set up by the government when it introduced PCCs  :wub:
