Cllr. Jennie Bone has defected to Reform UK from the Conservatives.
Cllr. Bone was elected to North Northants Council (NNC) in a delayed election in June 2025. The election was for two NNC councillors to represent the Higham Ferrers ward. Cllr. Bone’s margin of victory was just 3 votes!
Cllr. Bone was also elected to Higham Town Council (HTC) in the May 2025 all-out elections. She resigned from HTC towards the end of 2025. No by-election was called, so HTC is replacing her by co-opting a new councillor.
