i dont think he'd lose his seat on the council or county council but he would have to resign from the conservative party ... to stand as an independent .. but doing so means he wouldnt be leader of the council any more ... as it is the conservatives in control .. also he'd have to do all his leafleting and canvassing etc without backing from the conservatives ..he'd have to pay for everything himself ...
