			<description>&#60;p&#62;Local man Barry Parsons was narrowly elected as St. Mary’s ward councillor last night  mustering 13 votes to his opponent's 11 on a record low turnout.  Parsons's slightly larger circle of friends is thought to have been key to his victory.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Brushing aside the nearly 9,500 electors who didn't vote, an elated Parsons announced that his victory was an &#34;overwhelming local rejection of savage government cuts&#34; although he later conceded that his parents having recently moved into St. Mary's might have played a role in his victory.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Defeated candidate Peter Baines lamented “Mr brother-in-law died earlier this year which was a blow and I still haven’t returned my neighbour’s hammer drill which I've had for months and months.  I think the electorate has sent a clear message that I need to pay more attention to my relationships and also do a bit more around the house.”
&#60;/p&#62;</description>
