Antony Little

Antony Little (born 1979) is a British Conservative Party politician and teacher of history and politics at Notre Dame High School in Norwich, Norfolk.
He stood, unsuccessfully, in the constituency of Norwich South in the 2005 UK general election, against incumbent Labour member, Charles Clarke, dropping from second place to third place behind the Liberal Democrat candidate. He was re-selected as the Conservative Parliamentary candidate in Norwich South in February 2008 and lost at the 2010 General Election.
Little was elected to Norwich City Council as Councillor for Bowthorpe & Earlham in May 2006. He has lived in Norfolk since he began studying at the University of East Anglia, where he graduated with a degree in Modern History in 2000. Little is a NASUWT Union Representative and a school governor.
After being elected in 2006, Little took the leadership of the Conservative Group on the council. He helped in the group's success at the 2007 and 2008 elections, at which the Tories gained both other seats in Bowthorpe (defeating Labour's Deputy Leader in the process), held one seat in Catton Grove and gained another. The current state of the parties is Labour 15 (-1), Green 13 (+4), LibDem 6 (-6), Conservatives 5 (+3) - change is based upon 2006 results.
He is an opponent of the Government's local government review (unitary) for Norwich.
