The wife of Searchlight's Gerry Gable, Sonia Kathleen Emma Gable (nee Hochfelder) stood in the recent local elections as a Liberal Democrat candidate in the Clayhall ward for the London Borough of Redbridge. I wonder if her standing meant the Liberal Democrats partly carried all the anti-BNP/searchlight material distributed in Redbridge on their election expenses?  Sonia Gable was soundly beaten by all the Labour and Conservative candidates in the Clayhall ward with 526 votes.  This is a particularly poor result for Gerry &amp; Sonia Gable in a ward where the 2001 census puts the white British in the Clayhall ward at just 54.9%.   Gerry Gable must be distraught that all the work he and David Landau did as coordinators of 'Redbridge Together' resulted in BNP Cllr Leppert being elected in Hainault and Sonia Gable who signed the 'Redbridge Together' declaration on behalf of Ilford North Liberal Democrats receiving less votes than any of the BNP candidates who stood in other wards of Redbridge:  HAINAULT ward: Julian Leppert (BNP) 1150 votes Elected FAIRLOP ward: Anthony Young (BNP) 689 votes CHADWELL ward: Jason Douglas (BNP) 624 votes CLAYHALL ward: Sonia Kathleen Emma Gable (Lib Dem) 526 votes   What can I say, other than :rofl :rofl I would love to see a pic of her face when she realised.
