Burnley elections 2026: This is about choosing people, not parties | Burnley Independents Group leader Afrasiab Anwar
The Burnley Independents Group leader Afrasiab Anwar argues that voting for independent candidates in the 2026 local elections will ensure that Burnley is represented by people who are answerable to the local community, not party bosses. He highlights the track record of independent councillors in leading the administration and delivering key projects for Burnley.
In the 2026 local elections, voters are choosing people to represent their community, not just parties. The Burnley Independents Group argues that their candidates are local, accessible, and trusted because they live in the communities they serve. Over the past three years, independent councillors have led the administration, delivering key projects and driving investment into Burnley. They have prioritised cleaner streets, safer communities, and supported local organisations. With local government reorganisation on the horizon, the group believes it is vital to have the right people in the chamber to shape Burnley's future. The independent candidates are not driven by party agendas, but by what is right for Burnley.
