Cllr Justin Tomlinson, "I am extremely proud to have been re-elected to represent the residents of Abbey Meads ward for a further four years. I would like to thank all the local residents who have supported me in this campaign, and I will continue to work extremely hard for our local area - thank you."
"This was our biggest ever win in Abbey Meads, and shows that working with residents all year and focusing on a positive campaign we have gained the trust and support of a staggering 70% of local residents. Labour were punished for their negative campaign, out of touch with local issues and priorities. It is only the Conservatives who will put Abbey Meads residents first."
