    Default Community Council elections in Thurso

    I was pleasantly surprised to discover that 19 people are standing for 13 seats in the elections for Thurso Community Council. Long may the town be a fountain of democracy!

    Constrastingly, only 7 people were nominated in Wick, where no election is needed.

    There are a good few weel kent faces and names on the Thurso list, including some who post on here. Good luck to you all!

    Couple of names on that list make me shudder to think of them being elected.
    Some good ones there too though

    Care to share?

    I'd like to know more about the candidates & if they are putting themselves up for election they should be open to scrutiny.

    Happy Birthday to Mr P Cannop! Good luck in the elections!

    There are a good few I would definitely vote for, a few I probably wouldn’t vote for, and a few I don’t know, or know anything about.
