Back to the polling booths today as constituents voted for councillors on the new Dorset Council, one of two unitary authorities that will now govern Dorset locally. I voted at about 0900 and only four others had gone before. That was the first hint I had that turnout would be low. In addition to the new council, there were also elections to town councils. The count for the former is tomorrow, the latter on Saturday. There will be the inevitable backlash against the two main Parties for not having delivered Brexit. Both Parties deserve it, frankly, and it is shaming that we still have not left the EU some three years after voting to do so.
