Thank you, thank you, thank you. To everyone who voted for me persuaded others to vote for me, stuck up a poster, sent me a message, ran my campaign room, knocked on doors for me, put up placards for me, created leaflets for me, posted leaflets for me, did my social media, called people for me, planned my diary, gave me advice, planned the canvas schedule, picked me up when I was tired, kept me on this path. I thank you all. For now, it's us at the count. Results come in around 3/3.30am. Keep an eye out on this page Loads of love Clare and team ❤️ 🌹 – at Shoreham Beach, England
