STaN's on tour of Neath council wards - see STAN DIRECT - STaN's review of the local elections in Neath

+ Part 3 now out - should be read by all who care for Neath

Some surprises and new faces for the NPT Council.   Who is in and who is out - read about the changes, the winners, the losers and how the Conservatives split the vote to get a worse result.  Don't miss the YOUTUBE video link in Part 2 by an enthusiastic candidate.

Some readers are gutted by the results - see our Twitter page.  What happened to Andrew Jenkins in Neath South?

+ In Part 2 STaN tells the story of how one candidate, Darren Bromham-Nichols (right), went that one mile further and put a video on Youtube.  It is certainly an inovative way of getting noticed.   Did he get elected?  Read STaN's column and find out,

++ Ed Note ..... This is probably the most informative and entertaining write-up you will ever see on a local election - anywhere.
