Isle of Wight Council election There is a two-horse race for the seat on the Isle of Wight Council. The Isle of Wight Council ward previously covered Brading, St Helens and Bembridge, and was the Island s only ward with two representatives. Incumbent councillor, independent Michael Murwill, is stepping down after a tenure which saw him absent for a while through ill health. The other, Conservative Brian Tyndall, is standing in the new ward of Brading and St Helens. It means the new Bembridge ward is being fought by Conservative Joe Robertson and Our Island representative Alasdair Steane.
Left, Joe Robertson, right, Alasdair Steane.
