Who are the 90 candidates standing in an election to be a councillor at Wirral Council in 2019?
Below is a table of the ninety candidates in the election of a councillor across each of the 22 wards. Those living in each ward and who vote will elect one councillor to Wirral Metropolitan Borough Council (making twenty-two in total).

The information is from the Statement of Persons Nominated published today by Wirral Council. The Statement of Persons Nominated also includes the home addresses for some candidates, although due to a recent legislation change candidates can now choose not to make this public. For those who have chosen not to make it public it is just listed as “Address in Wirral”.
Polling day is on Thursday 2nd May 2019, with polling stations open from 7.00 am to 10.00 pm.

Yeah it’s that time of year again, when we vote for the clowns who waste our money and put our taxes up!
But talking to many people of the last year, the turn out will be low!
There are some wards on the Wirral which are highly contested this year, so I would guess that the political parties are concentrating on those rather than other parts of the Wirral!
