Political Representation
There is no overall control of the council, due to many independent councillors on the district council. The East Lindsey Independent Group has 19 councillors. The largest group is Conservative with 27, and, the next largest, Labour have 8 with four seats in Skegness, three in Louth and one in Mablethorpe. The leader of the council is the Conservative councillor for North Thoresby.

Famous quotes containing the word political:
“American thinking, when it concerns itself with beautiful letters as when it concerns itself with religious dogma or political theory, is extraordinarily timid and superficial ... [I]t evades the genuinely serious problems of art and life as if they were stringently taboo ... [T]he outward virtues it undoubtedly shows are always the virtues, not of profundity, not of courage, not of originality, but merely those of an emasculated and often very trashy dilettantism.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
