Thanks for highlighting that Luke - encouraging - but can someone pay Buckinghamshire a visit? Having a full UKIP slate in Aylesbury and even wards in the town uncontested by Labour isn't good enough, 2 candidates for all the seats in South Bucks isn't acceptable, and not running candidates in two wards of Wycombe where we had councillors in the mid-90's is also not impressive
