Well done David Bettney for getting 20,835 votes in South Yorkshire, a very respectable 7.6% of the total.

Thank you to the SDP Yorks & Humber team and everyone who supported David's campaign.

Well according to The Guardian #InsideNo9 is ‘the best comedy the UK has ever created.’ Hmm not sure about that, but thanks for giving us the quote for the series 9 dvd (that no one will buy because it’s not in Blu-ray.)

Congratulations to David Bettney, our SDP candidate for Mayor of South Yorkshire, who secured a creditable 7.6% of the vote. He deserved to win. We will be building on his groundwork with our parliamentary candidates at the forthcoming General Election.

Thank you Stephen, it's the result of hard work when everyone, including yourself, pull together. Thank you for that
