Seven candidates are running for a seat on Enfield Council in the upcoming by-election in Southbury.
The election was called following the death of long-serving Labour ward councillor Chris Bond in July last year.
Local elections were postponed following the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic but have been allowed to go ahead from May.
The Southbury by-election will take place on Thursday, May 6, alongside the mayoral and London Assembly elections.
The candidates standing for election in Southbury are:
Luke Ashley Balnave – Green Party
Luke Anthony Cummings – Liberal Democrat
