Other parties did not get a look-in in South Bucks today as the Conservatives triumphed again. Only Alison Wheelhouse in Beaconsfield and Paul Griffin in Iver were not Tory party winners. In Beaconsfield, Alison gained 1,620 votes, while former education cabinet member Anita Cranmer was elected with 1,726 votes and town councillor Jackson Ng got the most with 1,771. Labour candidates Louise Kavanagh and Ian Tunnacliffe didn t fare too well in Beaconsfield, gaining 368 and 241 respectively and putting them in eighth and tenth place - out of 10. In Cliveden, Zoe Hatch stepped up to the task for the Green Party again after unsuccessfully running for the Beaconsfield constituency in the General Election in 2019, but it wasn t to be yet again - gaining a respectful 1,099 votes.
PLANS to build a chalet-style bungalow on a poultry farm have been thrown out. Mr Challen has been refused permission for a new three-bed home for his family at Challen’s Chicks (farm), on Marsh Lane, in Taplow.
Planning committee members said it ‘did not meet the requirement for exceptional circumstances’.
PICTURED: What the chalet-style bungalow would have looked like The new build was to help maintain the farm which is largely centred on laying hens and egg sales, which the applicant claims is a “viable” business. Permission for a mobile home for a period of three was granted in 2018.
