                  Friday, 25th September 2009
 
                  UKIP scored another big win  in local government with an overwhelming result in the Billericay Town Council by-election last night.
 
                  UKIP's Cllr Susan McCaffery won 57% of the vote, more than the total vote of all other candidates combined.
 
                  Cllr Peter Reeve, UKIP Regional Organiser for the Eastern Counties said. "We are very proud of Susan for the fantastic result that she and her team have achieved.
 
                  "She is passionate about the local people of Billericay and her commitment has been rewarded by the trust that the local community have now placed in her. She will be an excellent voice of the people.
                  
                  "This is one of a series of big wins for UKIP in local elections across the Eastern Counties. Susan will join the fast-growing team of UKIP councillors who are fighting to restore local democracy and force polticians to start listening to the local community again.
                  
                  "It is also another nail in the coffin for the Labour Government and the National Socialist BNP." 
                  
                  The result for the Billericay Town Council South West ward by-election was:
                  480 (UKIP) Cllr Susan McCaffery
