About me

I'm a Liberal Democrat councillor for the Lewes Priory ward of Lewes District Council, and of Lewes Town Council. You can see my district council committee memberships on the LDC web site.

I work at the University of Sussex, where I manage email (my job title is "postmaster").

I live in Lewes, at the top of the Nevill Estate, with my wife and two cats.

My name is pronounced "EYE-low-art", it was invented by a piano tuner who moved to north London from Danzig (now Gdansk) in about 1800. His name had been "Mispel". That's German for "medlar", but is a bit of a joke in English. Why "Eiloart"? We don't know, but it is nice to be able to trace family history.
