Jamie Athill was selected as the Conservative Candidate after two open meetings in Norwich and Swaffham. My guess on the other three shortlisted candidates was proven right! – Simon Woodbridge former Leader of Broadland District Council, Stephen Bett and Paul Rice.
Steve Morphew is the Labour candidate having beaten Stephen Burker by 337 votes to 232.
Mervyn Lambert intended to stand but has now withdrawn.

I hope I’m the only one to read this, you either need a new keyboard or you need to utilise the spell checker on your PC. At first I thought it was a hoax posted by a Labour candidate to make the Conservatives look illiterate.
