Won by 43 votes (2.4%)1.2% swing needed to unseat
Peter La Broy won the Bude division by a narrow majority of 43 votes (2.39%) in 2025, a sharp reduction from a margin of 10.4 percentage points in the previous election. With a low turnout of 38.15% and a field of five candidates, a swing of just 1.2% would be sufficient to unseat the councillor, indicating high electoral vulnerability.
