Cllr Melanie Duff, "I am extremely pleased to have won this by-election.  The personal and nasty campaign ran by Labour was overwhelmingly rejected by local residents.  We the Conservatives put forward a positive agenda setting out how we are, and how we will improve our local area.  I will continue to do all I can to put Highworth first whether it is in the Borough or Town Council.  Thank you for your support."
