I was surprised to see (when I got my ballot paper) that only Labour, Lib Dems and Conservatives were standing in my ward. There's normally a few random independents and Greens but obviously they didn't bother.
There's been bugger all campaigning near me though, Labour have done a little (even though they are bound to win) and haven't seen hide nor hair of the other two parties.
We had a few independents for the Croydon Mayor. My favourite was the fella who closed his proposal in the leaflet with the catchy slogan 'Croydon needs an enema!'
