    The 63,000 that council candidates spent

    On average, they could have spent more than twice as much as they did, in their ambition to be city councillors.

    The 62,977.88 spent by the 162 council candidates from the three main parties is, of course, only a fraction of the 243,999 spent by the parties nine parliamentary candidates in the general election campaign (as revealed in last weeks Brighton & Hove Independent).

    How much council candidates are allowed to spend depends on the size of the electorate in the wards in which they stand. In a populous three-councillor ward such as St Peters and North Laine, a partys trio can spend more than 3,000 between them. In a less-populous two-councillor ward, such as Central Hove, it can be as little as 1,737.

    Often, the amount spent depends on the priority a particular party gives to a ward. Why spend a fortune on a no-hope ward? But why stint on a ward that is a must-win ward?

    Complexity is added by election regulations that mean a citywide party can perfectly lawfully allocate notional expenditure to individual wards for specific purposes - for

    example, leaflets devoted largely to a parliamentary candidate, but which gives a passing mention to three council candidates. Some of the cost counts against the parliamentary candidates allowance; some counts against the allowances for the council candidates.

    So what do the figures tell us?Interestingly, Labour seems to

    have spent the most in two of their safest wards: Moulsecoomb and Bevendean (2,483.96) and East Brighton (2,162.94), represented by Warren Morgan, the council leader, and Gill Mitchell, his deputy.

    Meanwhile, the Greens secured their stronghold in St Peters and North Laine - in Caroline Lucass constituency, of course - with a table-topping investment of 3,024.51.

    The Conservatives spent the most in Central Hove (1,299.38), Withdean (1,089.87), and Rottingdean Coastal (1,031.49) - where they won eight out of nine seats. Central Hove was a costly disappointment.

    In total, Labour candidates spent 18,596.54, Conservatives spent 13,687.03, and Green candidates spent 30,694.31.

    So who got the best value for money? You pay your money and you make your choice

    City College Brighton and Hoves Centre for Visual Arts End of Year Show is being held in the colleges York and Trafalgar buildings in Pelham Street for four days from today (Friday).

    From a department graded outstanding by Ofsted, the final projects from more than 400 students who complete their courses this year will be exhibited.

    They will include a range of different creative work, including photography, fine art, games development, fashion, textiles, graphics, illustration, and 3-D design.

    The exhibition has already received an enthusiastic response from Peter Heslip, the Arts Councils director of visual arts and London.

    Mr Heslip said: Im impressed not just by the standard of the work on display but also the quality of the ideas and the sense of the experimentation that comes across in the students working process. The essence of great art is an unfettered freedom for risk-taking.

    The students here are given the opportunity to cover a lot of ground very quickly. The facilities

    are also impressive in terms of the sheer scale and fit-out of the workshops not to mention access to other disciplines such as science labs. Its clear that the Art Foundation programme is absolutely whats needed in terms of launching our next generation of artists and creative industries professionals.

    The End of Year Show is open to the public today (Friday) 10am-5pm; tomorrow (Saturday), 10am-2pm; Monday and Tuesday (June 22 and 23), 10am-8pm. Admission is free.

    A Brighton University graduate has been chosen to be the new chief executive of City College Brighton and Hove.

    Nick Juba joins City College on September 21 from the University of the Arts London, Europes biggest arts school. He is currently the director of the universitys awarding body, responsible for strategic direction and improving the quality of pre-degree education in the arts. Mr Juba has previously worked at the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority, an agency of the Department for Education, as a senior adviser and for the European Commission as a consultant and rapporteur. A City College spokesperson said: Nicks appointment marks the next phase of development for the college, which will start with a full refresh of the college strategy, ensuring strong curriculum pathways for all its learners.

    CHALLENGING, SUPPORTING AND INSPIRING, GIVING EVERY CHILD THE CONFIDENCE TO EXCEL

    There is a warm, friendly atmosphere between pupil, staff and parent. This family environment allows my child to blossom and grow in confidence, explore

    and learn about the world around him. I have never known a school that has managed to capture this unique quality before. Parent.

    Shoreham College is a school that cares it values its children as individuals, knows them well, and ensures that they feel safe, secure and happy. Within a warm friendly environment it instils traditional values of good manners and courtesy, and teaches the children to respect themselves, their peers and their community.

    Blending enthusiastic pupils, inspiring teachers and supportive parents, it is able to achieve something special: happy children who are not afraid to get things wrong and are therefore able to experience the joy of learning. Shoreham College believes that a happy child in a family environment will flourish; the teachers enjoy coming into school every day and so do the pupils.

    Teachers encourage pupils to enjoy being children, which allows them to grow. They nurture, guide, support and inspire them to develop academically, emotionally, and spiritually and are rewarded by seeing them grow into confident

    young adults, ready to take on the challenges of life.

    Teaching boys and girls together from the ages of 3 to 16, parents can see the advantages that this through-school environment can bring. There is a freedom from unnecessary pressure, not only because the College does not undertake Year 6 SATs, but because

    pupils do not need to worry about passing an entrance examination in Year 7 or 8, which should mean a seamless transition from the Junior to Senior departments.

    This all-through education encourages stability and promotes attainment. Keeping the child engaged in a familiar, comfortable environment, rather than subjecting them to a potentially stressful move, nurtures their confidence and therefore encourages

    learning. The College is co-educational,

    catering for every type of learner as an individual regardless of their gender, trusting that this better prepares pupils for a world in which men and women live and work alongside each other.

    Adopting a broadly non-

    selective approach means that the College is committed to

    providing a first-class all-round education to children of varied ability, ensuring that every child can achieve their potential. Ambitious for them, we ensure that they are appropriately

    challenged: the gifted and talented extended and children

    with learning differences given what they need to achieve.

    The Colleges11-acre site is friendly and open, and has outstanding facilities: a modern sports hall, specialist design technology and

    science resources, ICT suites, heated swimming pool, well-maintained sports fields and open spaces - all of which provide a safe and healthy environment for children.

    Shoreham College Looking ahead to a bright future for all

    Here at Shoreham College we get the amount of

    freedom and support we need. The staff encourage us to be individuals and to be the best we can, pushing us to achieve our maximum potential.

    I am stepping down from the role of chief executive officer (CEO) of Brighton and Hove City Council. It has not been an easy decision. I dont think my work is finished; but I do think its for the best. We have a new Labour administration in the council. The council wants to appoint a new CEO. I leave a strong, competent, highly-motivated executive leadership team - and I hope that they can continue to deliver on the councils ambitious and tough agenda.

    I am pleased that the administration recognises my huge contribution to the council and city over the past two-and-a-half years. I am certainly proud of our corporate plan and budget delivery and a number of key achievements besides.

    Firstly, I leave an organisation with a culture underpinned by sound values and focused on high performance in the interests of all citizens and the city. It is a far happier, more open, empowered organisation than the one I joined in November 2012. Our recent silver award of Investors in People is testimony to that. I hope the council keeps going with the culture change and performance with consequence agenda that we have embarked upon. It is essential underpinning for a modernising, co-operative council facing huge financial challenges.

    Secondly, I leave an organisation that wants the same thing as its partners: private, public and voluntary. This is a shared commitment to a vibrant economy benefiting everyone (housing and jobs being key ambitions); a good life (irrespective of age); a well- run city (safe, clean, and moving) and a modern council - all combining to keep Brighton and Hove a fantastic city in which to live, work and visit.

    And there is evidence of progress. On top of our Greater Brighton City Deal last year, we won the Local Government Chronicle Growth Award for 2015 - being among the top-performing Key City regions with a developing

    digital economy, a vibrant and renowned cultural offer, and falling numbers of unemployed. We have a number of exciting developments in the pipeline, among them the i360, King Alfred, and Waterfront developments. Of course, there remain challenges: the reducing budget; rising needs; and insufficient housing supply are just some of them. Over the next few years, however, the council will be associated with keeping the city changing and developing.

    Thirdly, I am proud that we are prioritising fairness for our most vulnerable citizens. Equality is the theme of our energetic and creative director of public healths annual report this year. Under the leadership of our executive director of childrens services, we are properly attending to the experience of children at risk, children in care, children in education, and those with a disability.

    The forthcoming Ofsted report

    will provide evidence of a journey well underway...not finished. Our health and wellbeing partnership, between the council and health, is tackling the challenges of an ageing population and high numbers of citizens with significant mental health needs or managing the ravages of drugs and alcohol. I am pleased that we have developed a profound understanding of the seamlessness required between health and social care and between prevention, primary, secondary. and tertiary services. My role has been one of championing system leadership between the council and the health service and I do hope that this agenda continues to be prioritised and to flourish.

    Fourthly, I personally led negotiations to resolve a long-standing equal pay issue for the council. Painful though those negotiations were, the resolution of this significant issue has enabled the council to undertake a forward-looking agenda of redesign and

    renewal of our refuse recycling and parks services. These services in neighbourhoods are so visible and valued by citizens.

    Finally, I have sought to ensure that the council pursues equality for all including those quieter voices. As equalities champion, I have modelled our values and pursued an approach which supports all protected groups to be heard and the development of the One Voice group stands as testimony to that.

    I came into the role of chief executive clear that I would take up the post only if I were the first choice of all three leaders on the council. I have greatly relished the opportunity to work for those leaders and indeed for all 54 councillors. I am a longstanding and committed public servant who completes 40 years of public service this summer.

    I will miss all the people I have worked with in the council, the city, and beyond. And I trust that they

    will continue to do a great job for this fantastic city. I want to pay special tribute to my fellow senior managers in the city management board, and to my own executive leadership team, whose support and challenge I have always valued.

    Let me end, sure in the certain knowledge that I leave behind an organisation in better shape than the one I joined. I have worked unstintingly during my time as chief executive of Brighton and Hove City Council to be an #openCEO, setting a learning culture, and modelling accountable managerial leadership.

    I have appreciated the fellowship of so many who have signed up to our learning and improvement journey. I hope that many of those friendships will be sustained into whatever comes next.

    Penny Thompson has been chief executive of Brighton and Hove City Council since December 2012. She will leave on Tuesday, June 30.

    Why I am stepping downPenny Thompson@penny_thompson

    I leave an organisation with a culture underpinned by sound

    values and focused on high performance in the interests of all citizens

    months, our newly-elected council will now be largely rudderless in the stormy seas of Conservative-imposed, Labour-sanctioned austerity.

    Shortly after yesterdays 90-minute secret meeting , Brighton and Hove City Council issued a statement:

    Warren Morgan, leader of the council said: Id like to thank Penny on behalf of the council for her significant contribution to Brighton & Hove over the past three years, and for steering the authority through a difficult period.

    The backlash was swift. The Green Group of councillors condemned the removal of Ms Thompson, calling it a clumsy and costly mistake.

    Councillor Phlim Mac Cafferty, convenor of the Green Group, said: The Leader of the Council was not able to give us a stronger reason than a spat with the Chief Executive to end their employment. If there were problems between the Chief Exec and the new Labour administration then surely any Leader worth their salt would resolve problems to avoid costly mistakes?

    Councillor Geoffrey Theobald, leader of the Conservative Group said: It seems strange that the new incoming Labour Administration has decided so soon that they want a new Chief Executive.

    Finally, Jason Kitcat, the former council leader, struck a personal note. He said: Pennys record of public service and delivery is impeccable. She has been totally apolitical and a huge talent for the citys greater good.

    Theres nothing more we really need to know.

  • Positively Changing The Way You Look And Feel

    [email protected] | www.a-newyou.co.uk | 01273 604444

    When it comes to choosing cosmetic treatments it would be easy to get confused.

    That is why Jackie Knight set up A New You in Brighton; to offer an unbiased and straightforward service that ensures everyone is well informed about what is available, and most suited, to them.

    Jackie, a Registered Nurse with over 20 years experience in the cosmetic surgery industry, says many of her clients are looking to feel and look better without going under the knife.

    Most people who come to see me want to freshen up in some way, to put a bit of life back where they have spotted signs of ageing, she said.

    FACING UP

    The clinic, based close to Brightons main station, offers many different non-surgical treatments ranging from peels; injections to remove or reduce lines and wrinkles and new generation fillers to create lift and volume.

    It would be easy to get confused between what is on offer but many of our services require very little down-time yet give immediate natural results.

    Jackie added that some clients, at first, have been put off by celebrity face lifts who have had obvious work done, resulting in an unnatural face or trout pouts.

    All treatments are only available at A New You after an in-depth consultation where Jackie and her team will ensure they know exactly what you are looking for.

    We often suggest that some treatments are performed over two sessions or a course to avoid using too much product. This is particularly the case with filler to the lips, as subtle looks are considered very youthful and are frequently requested. We respond to our clients and create the natural look rather than something that looks overdone.

    BODY TREATMENTS

    It isnt just the face that can benefit from non-surgical treatments. Among the most common conditions are stubborn fat and cellulite, for which Jackie recommends 3D-lipo.

    3D-lipo utilises advanced non-surgical technology to target and reduce fat cells. It includes vacuum rollering which can reduce cellulite by increasing blood supply and lymphatic circulation, she said.

    For legs that need a bit of TLC, A New You offers foam injections otherwise known as Sclerotherapy to treat small broken veins. Stretch marks can be improved by a needling technique and prescription based creams. These are just examples, there are other treatments available.

    CHOOSING A CLINIC

    The first part of choosing a treatment is choosing the right clinic to offer advice and to carry out any procedures. Look for a clinic that is registered with the Care Quality Commission as a must, and Save Face accreditation is preferable.

    It is essential the practitioners have appropriate qualifications and experience. Take the time to find out what these are, wherever you go. Secondly it is imperative that plenty

    of time is taken to understand your needs and what look or effect you are trying to achieve, Jackie advises.

    It is your body and you know what you are aiming to achieve. Dont be pushed into something you dont want and make sure you feel confident youre getting the treatment and result you want. If you dont feel comfortable going ahead then dont proceed.

    She also advises checking on the after-care offered and that you have full details of any potential side-effects.

    There are always risks with any type of procedure and it is essential that clients are fully informed before making the decision to go ahead. Jackie and her team at A New You offer confidential, independent advice and consultations.

    Whatever your concerns about treatments please come and talk to us without obligation.

    Why not get in touch with the team now by calling 01273 604444.

    Brighton & Hove Independent has teamed up with New Priory Vets, Vets 2 Home, and Dogs Trust Shoreham to help find homes for some of Brighton and Hoves unwanted dogs. This week is Kerry.

    Factfile:

    Kerry is a very pretty 6 year old female Staffordshire Bull Terrier.

    She is a huge favourite with both staff and volunteers as shes such a sweetie.

    Kerry is looking for a home with a confident and calm dog to help her settle in and allow owners to start working up to leaving her alone as this isnt something she is comfortable with at present.

    New owners will need to continue her training as although she is very friendly with people including strangers, she does sometimes forget her manners.

    Kerry enjoys keeping fit and would really benefit from owners who enjoy long walks and generally keeping busy.

    Can you offer Kerry a home? Please call 01273 452576

    Licensing schemefor thousands moreshared homesFrank le Duc@BHcitynews

    A licensing scheme has been extended to thousands more shared houses and flats across Brighton and Hove.

    Councillors have agreed to extend the scheme from five of the 21 wards in Brighton and Hove to seven more.

    The scheme will cover Brunswick and Adelaide, Central Hove, East Brighton, Goldsmid, Preston Park, Regency and Westbourne from Monday 2 November.

    It already covers Hanover and Elm Grove, Hollingdean and Stanmer, Moulsecoomb and Bevendean, Queens Park and St Peters and North Laine.

    A report to members of the Brighton and Hove City Council Housing and New Homes Committee said: There are an estimated 6,460 houses in multiple occupation (HMOs) in the city, nine times the national average for this type of housing.

    Some, larger HMOs, already have to be licensed under national rules. The law applies if they are three or more storeys high and home to five or more people who are not related to each other.

    The report to councillors said: The mandatory licensing scheme has been in operation in Brighton and Hove since 2006.

    The council currently license, or have licence applications for, 1,030 larger houses in multiple occupation across the city.

    The committee also agreed to put up the licence fees for the first time in five years.The rises take effect from Saturday, August 1. Charities will remain exempt.

    The Albion Roar

    With the first day of the football league season usually held on the same weekend as Brightons Gay Pride celebrations, Albion fans have become accustomed to finding themselves on the road for the start of the new campaign.

    However, with the festivities not clashing this time around, Chris Hughtons side will get their 2015/16 Championship campaign underway at the

    Amex for the first time in four years, with Dougie Freedmans Nottingham Forest the visitors on August 8th.

    The Albions second league game the following weekend sees a trip to Fulham, with a midweek trip to Southend in the League Cup falling in between.

    October has been a period of the season to forget for a number of years, with Albions last win coming in 2010. Games against recently promoted Bristol City and Preston North End, along with Cardiff City, Leeds United

    and Reading offer a number of chances to end the run of bad form.

    The Christmas period of games will provide a tough

    test for Hughtons men, with matches against Derby, QPR, Middlesbrough, a Boxing Day clash with Brentford and Ipswich, followed by the first game of 2016 against Wolves.

    Fans hoping for a nice end to the campaign will have been left disappointed, as for the second season in a row, Albion will make their longest trip of the season, Middlesbrough away, for the final league game.

    Whilst many fixtures are subject to change, at a first glance its fair to say that the Championship is shaping up to be as tough as its ever been.

    Where Brighton will fit in terms of the league table is hard to call at this point, with the squad yet to truly take shape. Come August 8th, well start to get a better idea of how the season will look.

    Last week David Bellotti passed away, aged 71. In Sussex, he will always be remembered as the man who presided over the systematic destruction of our football club in the mid-1990s.

    As chief executive of Brighton & Hove Albion, he was the mouthpiece of despised chairman, Bill Archer, who lived over 200 miles from the Goldstone Ground. The former owner of Focus DIY never ventured anywhere near his football club and, with a little help from Greg Stanley, sold Albions home of 97 years without building or even securing a site a new stadium.

    An outsider looking in may suggest that as Bill Archer owned the club, he could do what he liked. But, the Albions articles of association prohibited anyone

    from profiteering from the sale of the Goldstone. Fortunately, our club has many passionate supporters and when one such fan, accountant Paul Samrah, discovered this information all

    hell broke loose.As Archer probably didnt even

    know where Brighton is, general day-to-day fire fighting and downright lying was left to the meek, mild and bespectacled David

    Bellotti. The former Lib Dem MP, utilising the skills he undoubtedly honed as a politician, i.e. the ability to tell whopping great porkies, dealt with a level of abuse unprecedented in modern football. It was justified. He was supposed to be one of us, an Albion fan since the early 1970s.

    From 1995 to 1997, frustration

    regularly boiled over as thousands of fans sung their disapproval every game, invading the pitch and occasionally storming the directors box to chase the unwanted Bellotti away. Such was the potential threat to his safety, a bodyguard was hired but he still unbelievably attended games. The hide of rhinoceros doesnt come close.

    In his death, its important to remember he was a puppet, carrying out Archers orders. Yes, he wasnt particularly pleasant, and he very nearly helped destroy the club we all love. But, we survived. We survived because we all stuck together to root out the evil. We survived because Dick Knight a true Albion fan took over, ousting the hated Bellotti and Archer.

    It is hard to say anything nice about Bellotti but he is no longer with us, and he was a human being, with family and friends. His passing, to me, simply serves as a reminder of our traumatic past.

    And that should never be forgotten.

    We will never, ever forgetDan Tester@BHIndyAlbion

    Bradley Stratton@BradStrat

    Albion handed home fixture with Forest to start the season

    As I write this, on Sussex Day (June 16), Sussex County Cricket Club is being as generous and hospitable to its visitors on and off the pitch as any South Saxon is ever famed for.

    Meanwhile, our best wishes go to Surreys Rory Burns and Moises Henriques, injured in a sickening collision in the T20 match at Arundel last Sunday. The medical staff were on pitch

    for 45 minutes for the two players knocked unconscious on the boundary while going for a catch. Thankfully, both waved to the crowd when being lifted into the ambulance and the prognosis is good. For a full report, see Marks column opposite.
