Vetting failure, again perhaps?
Cllr George Madgwick has yet to suspend or update his own social media account. Media reports suggest he was arrested in January 2026, prior to his selection, or his election in May 2026. He remains a county councillor; the council have noted that being charged does not disqualify a councillor.

You have to remember that they added 300 ish new MPs.
And starmer centralized vetting for them. Mandelson, luke akehurst and mcsweeney were responsible for vetting for suitability.
This is the result.
