I have written occasionally in the past about the increase in Conservative councillors in Stoke-on-Trent, and although our recent gains in the local elections are definitely worthy of note, I think the how and why are probably more interesting.

There are no silver bullets beyond hard work - but as we can testify, the results are definitely worth it!
