By-Election Set for Key Leicestershire Seat | Leicester News
A by-election is set for Long Whatton and Diseworth ward after the death of long-serving councillor Nick Rushton, who passed away at 70 after 35 years on council — including 12 as county council leader. Nomination papers must be submitted by 4 PM on Friday, September 4. With Labour holding the most seats (17) on the council, this pivotal race could shift power in the current ‘Alliance’ coalition — made up of Conservatives, Lib Dems, and independents — and reshape local politics.
