Your chance to vote for new police chief


VOTING for Kent’s first police and crime commissioner is now just a matter of weeks away. As the Downs Mail went to


press, nine candidates had stepped forward to vie for the coveted £85,000 a year post at the head of one of the biggest police forces in England. The deadline for candidates to register was Friday, October 19. Voting takes place throughout Kent – and the rest of England and Wales – on Thursday, No- vember 15. Five independent candidates

are in the running. They are:Ann Barnes, chair of the Kent Police Authority for the last six years and a magistrate since 1986, busi- nessman and property mogul Fergus Wilson, former Kent po- lice officer Fran Croucher, former Medway mayor Dai Liyanage and campaigner Ken Little. Heading the political con- tenders are Medway councillor Craig Mackinlay (Conservative) and Ashford councillor Harriet Yeo (Labour), along with Tun- bridge Wells lawyer Piers Wau- chope (UKIP) and Steve Uncles (English Democrats), a health manager from Dartford.


The role of the newPCCwill be


to cut crime and deliver an effec- tive and efficient police service. Voting takes place at polling stations throughout Kent from 7am to 10pm, where anyonewho is a UK citizen over the age of 18 and on the electoral roll by Octo- ber 31 is entitled to vote. Unlike political elections, the supplementary voting system will be used to elect the PCC – whereby voters will be asked to select their first and second pref- erence. If no candidate has 50% of the first preference vote, the two with the highest number go forward to a second count when ballots in support of an elimi- nated candidate will be re-allo- cated, based on their second choices. The key functions of the new


PCCwill be to listen to and serve the public,monitor the force and hold the chief constable to ac- count, set the police budget and ensure the force runs efficiently. The Federation of Small Busi- nesses has arranged a “question time” event at the Hilton Hotel, Maidstone, on Tuesday, October 30, when local businesses can quiz the candidates.
